The Bücker Jungmeister was developed in 1935 by Carl Bücker and Swedish designer Anders Anderson.This aircraft was a great success and due to its exellent performance, it served as a aerobatic trainer in many country.
The "BEVO" :
This Buecker-Jungmeister was manufactured in Germany in 1936
and brought to the U.S.A. on the dirigible Hindenburg, by the late Capt. Alex Papana (famed Rumanian Aerobatic pilot) ,
who exhibited it in the1936 National Air Races at Los Angeles and other National and International meets.
Col. Mike Murphy , International Aerobatic Champion
for several years, purchased the plane in 1940 and flew it in all major
U.S.A. meets and competitions until retiring.
Beverly Howard purchased this plane from Col. Murphy in 1946 and
has flown it in all major meets since that time , including meets in
France and Germany in 1950. This type plane was designed as a sport
plane but was used to train many pilots of the German Luftwaffe
prior to Worldwar II. Wing span is 21ft. 7in. Empty weight is 925lbs and is powered by a 7 cylinder radial 185 h.p. Warner (american) engine.

Load Factor
For aerobatics, the maximum load factor for the Jungmann is +6g, -3,5g.
Stalls
Stall characteristics are smooth.
Aileron use is not recommended to maintain lateral control. Only rudder is effective for this control.
Recover from a stall :
1. Lower the nose and add full power simultaneously.
2. Use the rudder to maintain lateral control.
Spins
Normal or inverted spins approved.
Spin Recovery
1. Throttle — Closed
2. Ailerons — Neutral
3. Rudder —Full deflection in the opposite direction to rotation
Manoeuvring Speed, V
A
Above manoeuvring speed, control deflections must be reduced.
Never Exceed Speed, V
NE
The V
NE,
is the maximum safe structural airspeed.
Inverted spin
As the stall speed
Push the nose up as you reduce the throttle closed.
Spin
holding full back stick and full rudder,
until the spin start !
NO inadvertent aileron
Any aileron input will alter the spin characteristics.
Neutral ailerons are essential for a smooth spin.
Recovery:
Start the stick forward from the aft stop,
maintaining full in-spin rudder.
before the recovery point, aggressively apply full opposite rudder.
The loop
Most good loops result in about 3.5 G but can be done at less. More than 4.0 is not usually required.
Entry speed 110 knots
a smooth but firm back pressure on the stick
Check each wingtip to show vertical
momentarily decrease back pressure to float over the top,
and check again the wingtip for level
As you pitch through vertical check wingtip and
maintain back pressure as airspeed increases
Pull for 3.5 g as you exit the loop.
Aileron roll Recreation style
Entry speed 100/110 knots
Raise the nose smoothly but aggressively to about 30 degrees above the horizon prior to starting the roll.
Before introducing any aileron the stick is "checked" forward
check the stick to neutral and only then apply aileron toward the desired direction of roll, accompanied by a little rudder to coordinate.
Aileron roll Competition style
Entry speed 100/110 knots
Raise the nosea little above the horizon prior to starting the roll.
Before introducing any aileron the stick is "checked" forward
check the stick to neutral and only then apply full aileron toward the desired direction of roll, accompanied by a full rudder
