They all do, don't they!

Going back to the "Storch". It can't be, it is too small. Also it sits at too high an angle. It may be a replica. If so I can't imagine too many replicas in Bosnia? I know it doesn't help with the airfield ID but I like the detail to be right.

It looks OK to me for a Slepcev Storch Slepcev Storch - Storch Aviation Serbia, home of Slepcev Storch

these are built in Serbia at Novi Sad so very possible theres one in Bosnia
