Zlin 142 as first airplane

Michal, thanks for your detailed post. Fortunately the plane I’m looking at has a well documented history and still about 500 aero and many more normal hours left in the airframe. I’ll try to see how much I can get around the time (especially calendar time) limits of the engine and the prop. If unable, I won’t buy.

The 26 series are surely nice aircraft and I will certainly do some training on the 326M they have at LHNY, but I would not buy something with tandem seating. I like to sit next to my partner.

And I think there was 42L

you are right, there was an attempt in 70ties but the project was abandoned. Speaking of Treners – I have updated my Trener visual recognition sheet with English labels. So if you consider a difference between Z-226M and Z-226MS a live critical matter, help yourself ;-)

good luck, keep fingers crossed for you. Don´t forget about service intervals on airframe, this might be a factor as well. when training on Trener, go for 226MS or 526F model, 326M is kind of lazy….
