One of the oddities at the excellent museum in Monino is this Kazan Aviation Institute KAI-19 glider. The KAI-19 was a high performance, all-metal sailplane, built with advanced techniques in the USSR in the early 1960s. The KAI-19 landed on an electrically operated, fully retractable monowheel with an oleo strut and a disc brake. Since August 2006, this example has been reported with the museum collection. The number on the tail is the museum inventory number.
