The Krähe (Crow) is a single-seat motor glider that first flew in 1957, shortly after powered flight was again permitted in the FRG. The most widespread problem was that engines proved unreliable when restarted in flight after being switched off for lengthy periods - not really ideal for a supposedly motorised glider. The aircraft was never commercially manufactured, although about 50 home-built examples are believed to have been produced. The Krähe exhibited here was flown until 1998 and is now on display at Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim.
