DISCONTINUED KLEMM KL 35B

The Klemm Kl 35 was a German low-wing training, aerobatic and sports plane with a fixed undercarriage from the interwar period and World War II. The drive - in the Kl 35 A version - was provided by a single engine Hirth HM 60 R with a capacity of 80 HP. The flight of the prototype took place in 1935, and in the years 1935-1944 serial production was carried out, which led to the creation of about 2,000 copies of this aircraft. The plane did not have on-board weapons. Kl 35 was established as a grassroots initiative of aviation companies Klemm Leightflugzeugbau Gmbh , which aimed to create a successor to the very successful Kl 25 plane. The new plane, i.e. the Kl 35, was largely based on the design of its predecessor, but it was powered by more powerful engines, and above all, it had wings in the so-called reverse gull configuration. The machine turned out to be very successful and had high aerobatic abilities, which quickly gained a group of numerous buyers. Klemm Kl 35 was exported to, among others: Romania, Sweden and Hungary. In the course of serial production, several variants of this aircraft were created, which differed from each other mainly in the propulsion unit used - but in each case it was a version of the Hirth engine with power from 80 to 105 HP. It is worth noting that a seaplane with the designation Kl 35BW was also built.
