Hi David!
I’ve been studying a bit on “German planes”, I had a bit of help from Florian Eisele (@jfe1978 from this forum).
There are 2 big German plane makers
Ulmia – http://www.ulmia.de/English/Ulmia-Uebersicht.htm
ECE – http://www.ecemmerich.com/
There is another maker not so famous, and until now I found no big recommendations about this brand.
Pinie – http://pinie.cz/en/
In their web sites there are some infos about it.
And by the way these kind of planes are usually called “continental planes” by the Brits but as far as my knowledge goes these style of planes were and still are used mostly in central and east Europe.
