Zlin Trener & Akrobat One and Two Seat Aerobatic and Training Light Aircraft




Zlin Trener is a family of aircraft that was based on a basic training aircraft, the Z-26.
The original Z-26 was designed in late 1940s and produced in 1946 by Czechoslovakian company Moravan, as a basic trainer to replace the Bücker Jungmann and Bestmann. The Z-26 was a low-winged monoplane of mixed construction, with wooden wings and a welded metal tube fuselage, powered by a single four-cylinder piston engine, the Walter Minor 4-III. It first flew in early 1947, proving superior to the competing Praga 112, and was declared the winner, entering production in 1948.
Later Z-26 variants were optimised to participate in aerobatic competitions and many were owned by private parties.

The Zlin Trener & Akrobat

Country of origin : Czech Republic

Type : One and two seat aerobatic and training light aircraft

History  

The renowned Zlin series of two seat Trener trainers and single seat Akrobat aerobatic aircraft was a great success, winning numerous world aerobatic championship titles during the 1960s.
The original Z 26 Trener was designed in response to a Czechoslovak government requirement for a two seat basic trainer for flying school and military use. The Z 26 was powered by a 78kW (105hp) Walter Minor 4III inline four cylinder engine, featured wooden construction and a fixed taildragger undercarriage. The prototype flew for the first time in 1947 and 16 production Z 26s were built before it was replaced from 1953 by the metal construction Z 126.
Development over a three decade production run resulted in numerous further improved variants. In 1952 Zlin introduced the Z 226 Trener6 which featured a more powerful 120kW (160hp) six cylinder Walter Minor 6III engine. The Z 226 was also built in single seat Z 226A Akrobat, glider tug Z 226B and Z 226T trainer forms.
The similar Z 326 TrenerMaster and single seat Z 326A Akrobat introduced retractable undercarriage, a feature that became standard on all subsequent models. Deliveries began in 1959. The Z 526 differed in that the pilot flew the aircraft from the rear, rather than the front seat, with optional tip tanks and a constant speed prop. The Z 526F introduced in 1968 had a 135kW (180hp) Avia M 137A engine, the otherwise similar Z 526L differed in being powered by a 150kW (200hp) Lycoming AIO360 flat four and was intended for export.
Single seat Z 526s were the Z 526A, Z 526AS, and Z 526AFS.
The Z 526 AFM was built between 1981 and 1984 and was powered by a 155kW (210hp) Avia M337 engine, had tip tanks and the Z 526AFS's lengthened fuselage.
Final development was the Z 726 series, the Z 726 Universal had reduced span wing, the Z 726K a 155kW (210hp) Avia M 337 engine.
