Sailplane and Sky

Friday evening, Schempp-Hirth CEO Tilo Holighaus made the first flight in the SHK owned by the Flying Museum Hahnweide (FMH) after it had been registered again.

As the pictures show, Tilo obviously enjoyed his first flight with the SHK.

In the pictures, you can see the SHK next to FMH's Gö-1 'Wolf', built in 1937. A lot of history in one photograph: The Gö1 'Wolf' was Schempp-Hirth's first glider built in serial production, while the SHK was the late Klaus Holighaus' first own construction for Schempp-Hirth.
