German Manned Glider Flights 1931, RRG Fafnir and More | 16mm Film Scan

Description: Film of glider trials/show dating to 1931, presumably in Germany, featuring the RRG Fafnir and (what I believe is) the RRG Falke. I am unsure of the other glider with the obscured name printed on the front left. I believe this is taking place in the region of the Rhön moutntains of Hesse around the Wasserkuppe from my preliminary research, please leave a comment if you know more! Film appeared to have been shot at a mix of 16 & 24 FPS; with no clear reference for most shots I just exported at 24 FPS. Also avoids having to deal with frame blending/optical flow warping to normalize those framerates. *Contact for Usage* 0:00 Attendants chatting 0:33 Fafnir Launch 2:12 Falkne Launch 2:52 On ground with craft 3:03 Various Glides and Shots 4:26 Landing 4:34 Back to the Skies Songs (Public Domain added from Library of Congress): Stimmungs Walzer - Victor Band Mariechen Walzer - Victor Band Der Traum Eines Krigers - Kramers Kapelle #GliderFlights #Segelflug #VintageAviation #Wasserkuppe #1930sAviation #HistoricalFootage #RRGFafnir #RRGFalke #16mmFilm #VintageGliders #GermanAviation #GliderHistory #RhönMountains #FilmArchive #aviationheritage
