By engaging the twin-brothers Siegfried and Walter Günter a new era of aerodynamics broke out at Heinkel, with the sports- aeroplane Heinkel 64 as the first manifestation.
The 'Heinkel-dreamteam': The aerodynamicists Walter and Siegfried Günter, in addition Karl Schwärzler, Heinkel's chief-engineer.
The Günter Brothers, already wellknown about their sports-aeroplane 'Bäumer Aero', took a similar effort in the details and aerodynamic honing of the Heinkel 64. It is therefore not by chance, that there exists a certain similarity between the two aeroplanes.
