Comment:
The Zugvogel was designed as a simple Open Class ship with dive brakes and simple assembly. The ヨ 3B has a shallower fuselage than the ヨ3A. Helen Dick flew a ヨ3B to set the following U.S. national feminine single-place records : Distance (492.2 km./ 305.84 miles), goal (364.6 km/ 226.57 miles) and Out & Return (400.00 km./ 248.82 miles) between 1964 and 1967.
