Teichfuss Astore

Like the Falke it was intended as a secondary or intermediate trainer, its swept wing bringing intrinsic stability and safety for the inexperienced pilot.

Ailerons were hinged at right angles to the fuselage and were lobate, with curved edges that blended into rounded wing tips.

The wing, which was mounted with dihedral, was supported over the fuselage by a pair of inverted V-struts from the upper longerons and a small pillar behind the cockpit.

A longer faired bracing V-strut joined the lower longeron to the wing at about one third span on each side.

[1] The fuselage was a ply covered wooden hexagonal structure with deep sides and an open cockpit under the wing.
