The Berlin B.8 and the Hannover AFH 10 were two of the final products of the Akafliegs, (or the Flugtechnische Fachgruppen) of before 1940. The B.8 was the Berlin Akaflieg's offering for the then embryo Olympic or Standard Class. The AFH 10 was the Hannover Akaflieg's contender for the 15m class. It should be mentioned that their AFH-4 was a contender for the 15m variable geometry open classjbut it had been one of the seven sailplanes to break up in thunderstorms at the end of the 1938 Rhon Contest (its pilot Schulz was killed.)
