Elastolin DLV composition figures

The German Air Sports Association (Deutscher Luftsportverband or DLV) was an organisation set up by the Nazi Party in March 1933 for training of military pilots. Its chairman was Hermann Göring and its vice-chairman Ernst Röhm. Since the Treaty of Versailles officially forbade Germany from building fighter planes of any sort, the German Air Sports Association used gliders to train men still officially civilians for the future Luftwaffe. The DLV was dissolved in 1937 and replaced with the NSFK - National Socialist Flyers Corps, a corporation under public law and subordinate to Reichsluftfahrtminister Göring. Elastolin produced DLV figures from 1934 to 1939. The Elastolin catalog numbers of the presented solders (from left to right) are 30/658/12, 30/658/52, 30/658/3 and 30/658/14.
