Short historical background:

The Hol's der Teufel was the first advanced trainer in Hungary suitable for ridge and even thermal soaring. Many of the first generation of Hungarian glider pilots earned their C badge flying this glider. The first C bagde was gained by Mátyás Bernard flying a Hol's der Teufel for 9 minutes 45 seconds at August 1, 1929. Bernard got his basic training at Germany in 1928.

In 1932 Árpád Hardi-Molnár set the new Hungarian duration record with a Hol's der Teufel flying 6 hours 4 minutes at Gyöngyös.

The first Hol's der Teufel was imported in 1929 by MOVERO, Budapest. Later a number of Hol's der Teufel - or Holci in its Hungarian petname - were built by different clubs. Its popularity declined with the appearance of Rubik's R-07b Vöcsök.
