variants with their own articles=The Heinkel He 64 was a sports plane built in Germany in 1932 to participate in the touring plane championships that year. Designed by Siegfried and Walter Günter, it was a sleek, low-wing monoplane of conventional configuration with fixed, tailskid undercarriage. The pilot and passenger sat in tandem under a streamlined canopy. Six examples were entered in the championships, which represented almost every example of the type built, the only exception being the first prototype, which had crashed.

The He 64s shone in the speed-related trials, taking the first three places in the 7,363 km (4,601 mile) "Rally over Europe", and the first five places in the overall speed trials. Although no He 64 had placed in any of the other categories, these wins were sufficient to gain pilot Fritz Morzik an overall tied second place in the contest.
