@ Prague, Czech Republic
April 2019
The prototype for the Zlin Z-XIII is displayed in the excellent National Technical Museum in Prague. First flown in 1937, this sleek design of this aircraft could be configured as a single seat or with a passenger. The Z-XIII is displayed as a single seater with a shorter canopy, and forward fairing. This versatility was intended to allow the type XIII to operate as either a high speed executive transport or a single seat competition aircraft. This aircraft represented the peak of Czech aviation technology before the onset of WWII, unfortunately only one was built. Fuji X-E2s w/18-135mm.
