Avia CS-199 Mezek UC-26 Czechslovakian Air Force
Probably only one preserved post war by Avia factory builded twin-seat german Bf 109G-12. Many fuselages of Luftwaffe Messerschmitts were abandoned in Avia factory and from them were after war assembled many czech designed single-seat S-199s and twin-seat CS-199s. This “Mezek” served until early 1950s by flying school at Prostejov, later was discovered in the yard of school in Celachovice and in 1966 moved to Kbely museum for restoration. Here is displayed in original appearance from service in Prostejov. | Phil Glover
