The SG-38 was a German training glider, of which about 10,000 were produced by various manufacturers and used to train Luftwaffe pilots. During WWII, production was extended to Slovakia and Prague. After the war production continued as the nationalized Flugtechnische Fertigungsgemeinschaft Prag was renamed Aerospace Production Company (Letecká výrobní společnost - LTVS) Letňany and around 100 slightly modified versions were produced.This original exhibit contains some reproduction parts and a complete renovation for display was completed in March 1971.
