Eduard has announced that they will be releasing a series of 1/48 kits of the Zlin Trener in all of its forms
”Guys,
we are introducing the 1/48th scale Trener project today. I understand, this is very, very Czech or, better said, Czechoslovak project, not so much interesting for abroad modelers. However, it is good to know, that Treners were flown in many countries worldwide, in significant amounts. These trainers, which is a meaning of the name Trenér, served in France, Italy, Great Britain, as well as in Germany, Poland, Yugoslavia, Soviet Union and in many, many other countries. And, they serve even today.
About the project:
- You can see many versions here. Which is not all, because these version have even more subversions. Note most of these subversions served with two various engines, with Minor 6-III first, and latter were modernized using the M-137 engine. Both engines including cowlings are going to be included in all these single kits.
- These aircraft were and they still are very variable. So, if do you understand Trener variants, and if yes, you have all my respect, don´t warry if you will see anything incorrect in the pictures. All parts to build correct configuration will be included!
- All the small parts will be included in common parts frames, as in most other Eduard kits.
- The only exception is Z-526AFS, which is prepared to have exclusive set of unique frames.”
