Approximately 70 largely unpublished photos and documents illustrate the rise and fall of the DKW Group. The reader experiences the relocation of the factory, which began operations in 1934 as Erla Maschinenwerk GmbH in Leipzig, the transition to the construction of military aircraft, and thus the displacement of the idea of building sports aircraft. The book invites all aviation enthusiasts on a special journey into a previously almost undiscovered past.
