In the autumn of 1935, on the recommendation of the director of the Commerzbank branch in Hanover, Mr. Paul Narjes, the company received a visit from a representative of the Reich Ministry of Aviation. The Reich Ministry of Aviation was looking for a company that was willing to build an aircraft repair plant in Hanover. It was not possible to set up such a production facility on the existing site. The site was acquired by the Koebe company, formerly the company of the Issen brothers, who operated an iron foundry and machine factory there. Part of the halls on the site were demolished and the plant, called Plant II, was very generously expanded for its intended purpose. On the site of the nearby Vahrenwald Airport, a hall was built for the final assembly of the aircraft and flight operations, called Plant III. In October 1936, the first repair aircraft, a Heinkel He 46, was delivered.
The first repair orders initially included the aircraft types Heinkel He 46, Heinkel He 51, a biplane fighter, Junkers Ju 52 as a transport and bomber aircraft, Junkers Ju 86 and Dornier Do 17
.
In 1939, the company received an order from the Gesellschaft für Luftfahrtanlagen, a subdivision of the Reich Ministry of Aviation, to build a warehouse for the stockpiling of spare parts for Dornier Do 215 and 217 aircraft. To this end, the company acquired a plot of land of 30,000 m² in Brink and built a warehouse on a 10,000 m² section.
