Completed in 2000, our Mü 30 is a groundbreaking aircraft that combines towing performance with aerobatic capabilities. Over the past 25 years, the Mü 30 has become widely recognized for its performance at gliding world championships, international air shows and other aviation events. Especially in Munich, the Schlacro (Schleppen + Acrobatik) has become popular in the last years for the big heart, which could be seen above the Munich sky during the Oktoberfest tapping ceremony.
The Challenge
For decades, the Mü 30 has relied on the performance and reliability of Lycoming’s AEIO-540 engine. However, the engine has become unserviceable due to an Airworthiness Directive addressing the upper connecting rod bushings. During this inspection, we discovered a crack in the crankshaft. Without a replacement engine, this iconic aircraft cannot continue its vital role.





As a student-run nonprofit organization, we heavily depend on donations to support our research and keep our aircraft operational. With funding for student organizations becoming increasingly scarce, the role of industry sponsors has never been more vital.
Together, We Can Keep the Mü 30 Flying
We are therefore asking for your generous support. It would enable us to put the Mü 30 back into operation with a new engine and inspire the next generation of aerospace engineers.
In return, we offer branding opportunities on the Mü 30, giving it high visibility at international events and on social media. As a recognized scientific organization, we can also issue donation receipts for tax purposes.
With your help, the Mü 30 can continue to inspire and educate generations of students and inspire many thousands of people with aerobatics. Your contribution would be an invaluable support for our student research association and would have a lasting impact on the future of aerospace innovation.
Every amount helps, however small it may be. If you would like to help us, please donate to the following account:
