Named 'Kiebitz' (lapwing), this German sport aircraft from 1928 epitomized lightweight design philosophy of 1920s aviation. At just 6.2 meters long with a narrow 8.9-meter wingspan, the single-engine design reached 140 km/h. Its diminutive proportions made it accessible for sporting clubs and private owners seeking affordable recreational flying.
