history

In 1927, Hans Herrmann began developing a transport aircraft at Caspar-Werke on behalf of Luft Hansa , which, in addition to two pilots, could carry eight passengers in a closed cabin. A BMW VIU engine with a four-blade propeller served as drive . The name Priwall was derived from the peninsula of the same name.

The first flight of the C 35 with serial number 7015 took place in April 1928. In the following August, Luft Hansa took over the prototype and named it Rostock . After removing the cabin windows, it was used as a cargo aircraft from 1929 as the C 35 c with the registration D-1360 until it was destroyed in July 1930 .
