Scheibe Flugzeugbau was a manufacturer of sailplanes and motorgliders in Germany in the second half of the 20th century. Founded by Egon Scheibe at the Munich-Riem Airport to produce his Bergfalke design in 1951,[1][2] the company had produced over 2,000 aircraft by 1985.[3] After Egon Scheibe died in 1997, his sons-in-law took over the firm.[4] By 2006, they were ready to relinquish control themselves due to their advanced age, but without a successor, the firm ceased operations.[4] Hartmut Sammet subsequently founded Scheibe Aircraft GmbH in Heubach, taking over maintenance of existing Scheibe aircraft, and the manufacturing rights to the Scheibe SF 25.[4]
