The aircraft of Flugtechnischen Vereins Spandau 1924 e. V has been constructed by the technical director of the club and prospective participants at the Deutschen Rundflug Ing Kurt Krokowski and built under his direction by the members of the association. The fuselage and wing are made of plywood. With a crew of two men results in a surface load of 30-kg/m2. The wing is made with box spars in a V shape on the fuselage, and attached to engine installation constructed of steel tubing and sheet metal chassis to support construction, fixed by two bolts with the same pipe. The fuselage shape is oval and has good transitions to the surface, bottom and chassis fairing. With a weight of 400 kg at full load and 30 hp Haacke engine with 2 horizontal cylinders a speed of 130 km is reached while the same may be reduced at high engine throttle to about 60 km. Due to the smooth pleasing transitions the aircraft has received an almost teardrop shape, which causes little drag.
