Arado L II
The Arado L II was a two-seat, high-wing sporting monoplane built in Germany in 1929. A revised version, the L IIa flew the following year and four examples took part in the Europa Rundflug that year, but none received places and one crashed early in the race. Two of the same aircraft competed in the Deutschlandflug in 1931.
