WWII Bucker Jungmann Biplane - Filmed with the Canon 5D Mark II and Glidetrack

I filmed this WWI Bucker BU 131 Jungmann German Luftwaffe trainer biplane with a Canon 5D Mark II and Glidetrack slider. Below are the details on the airplane from the owner/pilot.

----

Originally designed in 1934 for use as a pre-WW II German Luftwaffe trainer. Sold as a primary military trainer to multiple countries, a few of which license built their own. This one was one such license-built plane. It was manufactured by C.A.S.A. in Spain in 1954. It was purchased through a broker in 1978 after it was de-commissioned by the Spanish Air Force. It is a somewhat rare airplane (one of about 100 in the world) that is known for its superior flying qualities. It is fully acrobatic, equipped with inverted fuel and oil systems. It was completely restored two times during the 33 years of ownership by the current pilot. It is made of lightweight 4130 steel tubing and wood. It weighs less than 1000 lbs. It is covered with aircraft Dacron fabric (the original fabric was Irish linen) and finished with aircraft butyrate 'dope,' an original product specifically made for fabric aircraft.
