About the aircraft
The Zlín Z-226MS is a Czech single-engine monoplane developed in the 1950s by the Moravan Otrokovice factory as an evolution of the successful Z-26 Trener line. The MS variant was specifically designed for glider towing and utility roles. It remains a workhorse at many Central European airfields, valued for its robust construction and reliable performance.
