Photo Comment

The original Aero A-18.5 was delivered to Air Regiment 2 in Olomouc in June 1923 but crashed a couple of years later. This exhibit is a reconstruction using factory drawings and many original parts, just the engine is not to the original speciifications. It is on display in one of the hangars that comprised the original Aero factory at Letňany and have been refurbished to house the Staré Aerovka museum.
