The L410 UVP-E20 / L420 aircraft, which is the latest and most advanced successor of the famous L 410 aircraft series, is a well proven 19 seat turboprop commuter aircraft with outstanding technical parameters and operational reliability, easy handling and simple maintenance.

The L410 / L420 aircraft have been in production for over thirty years with an impressive safety record. Owners and users from different regions of Europe, Asia, Africa and America appreciate the aircraft's remarkable ”hot and high” performance and excellent STOL capability. They especially value its tough and durable structure and the ability to operate under extreme climatic conditions ranging from –50oC up to +50oC. Its durable airframe and unique design offer exceptional performance both in the torrid desert heat of Africa and Latin America as well as the most frigid regions of the world.

The L410 / L420 aircraft are equally "at home" operating in the Sahara desert or the Siberian tundra. The aircraft has proven consistent and reliable service in an exceptionally wide range of climate conditions, from dusty and dry African savannas to rainy areas of Latin America and from sea level to ”hot and high” mountainous destinations. The aircraft have been successfully operating in many countries and regions all around the world.

The two-seat all-metal L 13 AC Blanik is an improved version of the L 13 Blanik with excellent aerobatic characteristics. It has been designed for dual elementary and aerobatic glider training. The wing tip extensions improve its thermal and cross-country flight characteristics even further.

The aim of the L13AC Blanik is to promote instruction in aerobatics, including recoveries from unusual glider attitudes. The availability of this kind of glider, similar to the original Blanik, the most widely used trainer in the world, makes it possible for instructors to refresh their aerobatic skills, and to pass the confidence gained on to their students. The advent of the L13AC Blanik heralds more participation in glider aerobatics, and brings a boost to the sport of soaring.

The L 13 AC Blanik is manufactured according to BCAR requirements and is Type Certified in the Czech Republic and in the USA.

The world's most respected and popular two-seater training glider, the Blanik, is now available in a new improved version - the L 23 Super Blanik.

The new glider retains the the excellent flying and maintenance characteristics of the L 13 Blanik while visibility and handling are further refined.

Among many improvments are the new T-tail to minimize damage during land-outs, the swiveling tail wheel for easier ground handling and the new canopy enhancing visibility to the sides and back.

The L 23 Super Blanik is an all-metal two-seat self-supporting high-winged glider with an excellent flight characteristics and a service life of 10,000 flight hours. It has been approved for all stages of flight training from basic to advanced cross-country, aerobatic, stunt and instrument flying. It is manufactured according to the requirements of JAR 22 and is Type Certified in the USA, Canada, Brasil, Argentina, Germany, Great Britain, Spain, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Australia and other countries.

The high ratings of the L 33 Solo all-metal single-seat glider are the result of sophisticated design development incorporating the latest in the soaring technology. The comfort and ease of flight and it's durability make it and obvious choice for all soaring enthusiasts. It is intended for an advance training and a performance soaring.

Pilots who received their initial dual instructions in the L 13 Blanik or L 23 Blanik will find the transition to the L 33 Solo absolutely natural.

The L 33 Solo is an all-metal single-seat cantilever mid-high wing sailplane with a semi-monocoque fuselage, fixed gear and cantilevar T-tail surfaces. It is manufactured according to the requirements of JAR 22 and is Type Certified in the Czech Republic, USA, UK, Germany, Hungary, Canada, Japan and Argentina.
