The first post-war venture was a neat mid-wing monoplane built of wood, with wood and fabric covering, powered by a 50hp Argus engine. The tandem two-seat design was fitted with a fixed, braced undercarriage and had a crash pylon mounted above the forward cockpit. Construction of the aircraft, designated A 7 Storch (Stork), began in a Bremen cellar but was temporarily halted pending investigation by the Inter Allied Control Commission. After examination by a French officer, construction was allowed to continue, and was eventually completed towards the end of 1921. In November Georg Wulf took the aircraft up on its first flight, subsequently attaining an altitude of 650ft. The aircraft was later badly damaged on the ground by a severe storm. It was not until the summer of 1922 that the A 7 (almost certainly given the Werke-Nummer 1) was rebuilt, the airframe fitted with a 55hp Siemens Sh 10 five-cylinder radial. In December the machine was registered D-264 and allocated a German passenger licence. A demonstration of the aircraft in 1923 before Wulf's tutor, Professor Proell, led to a group of Bremen businessmen becoming interested in the work of the two airmen, and the eventual creation of the Focke-Wulf company.
