The Zlin Z-381 in Czechoslovak Air Force service was designated as the C-106 and used as a pilot trainer. This example is on display at the Letecké Muzeum Kbely in the markings it wore at the Aviation School Prostějov in the early 1950s. It then flew with the Praha Točná Aeroklub as OK-DJR and was eventually sold to a private individual before becoming part of the National Technical Museum. It was handed over to the Letecké Muzeum Kbely in 1968 andcompletely renovated before going on display.

There are very few airworthy examples of this 1940's built Zlin Z-381. This one was withdrawn from use around the time of this picture. Scanned from a slide. Built in 1947 and registered as OK-ASK from 17.07.1947 to 29.08.1958.

The Bestmann was not a regular in the Swiss air force, but no less than six Luftwaffe aircraft were interned and one Swiss-owned machine requisitioned during the war. The original A-251 was German factory call sign SJ-SS. This preserved aircraft is really a licence-built Swedish Bestmann.

The Bücker Bü 181 was the standard Luftwaffe training plane for beginners, as side-by-side instruction in an enclosed cocpit is ideal, from 1940 until the end of WWII Around 3,400 were produced during the war and continued afterwards in Sweden, Czechoslovakia and Egypt. The complete history of this Bü-181 is not known, although it is nearly certain that it flew with the Luftwaffe. In 1959 It was flown in Saarland with the registration SL-AAS and then was registered as D-ECYV. Its final flight was on August 24, 1997 and is now on display at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim.
