The DFS (Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug - German Research Institute for Gliding) Habicht (Hawk) was designed in 1936 by Hans Jacobs. Four Habichts enthralled spectators at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games by performing over and inside the Olympic stadium. It seems only two original Habichts survived WWII. This example was flown by famous French aerobatic pilot Marcel Doret, who won the aerobatic world cup for gliders with it in 1939. The other Habicht, registration D-8002, flew in Southern Germany until it was destroyed by the collapse of the hangar in which it was stored.
