Zonen pioneered the use of ambulance aircraft in Denmark in the late 1930s. Some were, in fact, allowed to be operated during the occupation of Denmark during WW2. The aircraft were clearly marked with the Danish flag and colours. Operated by Dansk Veteranflysamling and seen at Stauning.

Outstanding among the delightful collection of KZ types kept at the Danmarks Flymuseum is the KZ IV twin-engined ambulance aeroplane from 1944, one of only two built. Considered by the museum as one of their most prized exhibits, KZ IV OY-DIZ was designed and built for the Danish flying ambulance service known as 'Zonen' and benefitted from the concession allowed by the wartime occupying German forces for medical flights. Powered by two Gipsy Major X 130hp engines, it possessed excellent short-field performance. It crashed in 1979 but after an extensive rebuild, remains in flying condition.

This is one of the active aircraft of the Danish flying museum at Stauning.
