Minimoa Go3 ARF

It first flew in 1935, The name is derived from the cloud formations called Moazogtl. The name was used for one of Hirth's earlier gliders and since the Gö 3 was a smaller version, it was called "Mini" or "Mimimoa"
The Minimoa established several records, including the world altitude record of 6,687 m (21,939 ft) in 1938 in a thunderstorm. Richard du Pont and Chet Decker flew Minimoas to win the US Championships in 1937 and 1938. Constructed from wood and fabric with cantilevered "Gull" wings, the undercarriage was non-retractable and it was the first glider built to carry water ballast in a tank behind the pilot. Only a handful of original gliders exist today.
