The Zlín Z-XII was a Czechoslovak single-engine, low-wing sports and training two-seater, of wooden construction from the mid-1930s of which more than 200 examples went on to be produced. The first prototype (cn 101, OK-BTA) first flew in April 1935 and this plane, now on display in the very interesting Museum of Southeast Moravia, is on display in the colours of the second prototype. The real second prototype was heavily damaged in September 1935 in Brno during the National Flight of the Czechoslovak Republic and probably did not fly after that.
