Scheibe Sf-24 Motorspatz

Manufacturer: SCHEIBE

The Scheibe SF‑24 Motorspatz, meaning Motor Sparrow, is a West German high‑wing, single‑seat motor glider. Designed by Egon Scheibe and built by Scheibe Flugzeugbau, it is a powered derivative of the unpowered Spatz sailplane. About 50 units were produced in the early 1980s, and the aircraft was never type‑certified, making it a niche model mainly used by private owners and clubs.
