Zlin Z.50

I imported and owned a couple Z-50's. The first was serial no. 12, a 1977, 260 hp. LA model that I bought from the Romanian Aeroclub. I replaced it with serial no.0067, a Czech 1994 LS from the Devils of Unimax, that I upgraded to an LX model. I spent 13 years making a living in it. They can't run with the new crop of carbon fiber rocket ships, but they're a blast to fly, and NOTHING tumbles like a Z-50!
