Rare original 1936 press photo documenting the first Polish water-glider during its historic test flights over the Vistula River (Weichsel). This pioneering hydro-glider represents Poland’s early aviation innovation, featuring a float-style hull for water takeoffs. The image captures the pilot seated in an open cockpit, ready for gliding operations. Stamped August 10, 1936, with German press annotations, this is a scarce piece of pre-WWII aviation history, ideal for collectors of Polish aviation, gliders, and experimental aircraft.
