The FVA-10b Rheinland glider is a unique design by the German academic association FVA (Flugwissenschaftliche Vereinigung Aachen) from 1927. It was created as a training and school glider intended for efficient pilot training and breaking unpowered flight records. This glider was mainly used during competitions and demonstration flights in Germany during the interwar period, and it also played a role in the development of early gliding both in its homeland and abroad.
