Easy:

This is a Fokker Dr.I, on the picture (Dr. for Dreidecker=triplane) posted by Vanjast.
This flying replica on the picture, is fitted with an original overhauled Oberursel or Gnôme rotary engine, and is being piloted by Mikael Karlsson.
Here he's taking this Dr.I for a wild ride:



"Karlsson on the roof" is a swedish child's tale from Astrid Lindgren, if not connected to Mike K. of course:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karlsson-on-the-Roof


Since a lot of those early planes ended up on roofs ..

In most cases where these planes have crashed into houses, it is because someone has left the landing light on .......
