Gö-3 Minimoa model airplane, 1422 mm wingspan, 1:12 scale, SD7032, Tony Ray
The Gö 3 “Minimoa” was a high-performance glider developed in the mid-1930s by the German company Schempp-Hirth in Göppingen.
Its distinctive gull-wing design improved handling and brought it great success in early gliding competitions.
Before the Second World War, she set several altitude and distance records and enjoyed a high reputation among glider pilots.
Production was interrupted by the outbreak of war, but the Minimoa concept influenced many modern designs after 1945.
Today, only a few surviving examples exist, and they can be regularly seen in museums and at vintage aircraft air shows.
