History

Klemm had been a leading producer of light aircraft in the 1920s and 1930s; the Kl 107 represented an attempt to re-enter the market in the 1950s with a modern low-wing monoplane. Production was limited and the type was later associated with Bölkow during corporate restructuring.

Variants

Minor variants differed in engine fitment; no major sub-series entered large-scale production.

Where you'll see it

Operated by private owners and flying clubs in West Germany during the late 1950s and 1960s.
