Known as "Piernificador", it was designed in 1954 by Reimar Horten as a member and founder of the Club de Planeadores Urubú glider club, located in Córdoba, Argentina. With a wingspan of 9 meters, the single-seater paraglider was configured as a tailless delta and used the force of its pilot to rise into the air. It has been restored by the museum in recent years.
