Short historical background:
Three of this two-seater glider were imported by the HMNRA and they went to different HMNRA training centers. The type were mostly used for aerotow instruction and training. However György Nagy and Tibor Horváth pilots performed a 205 km distance flight in 1942 with this type.
One Gövier survived the war. The career of the type ended in Hungary when this last glider crashed in 1948,
