This T-131 is pictured taxiing out for take-off after attending the 11th Reunion of Czechoslovak Aircraft. Although the original German Bü-131 design first flew in April 1934, Bücker allowed licensed manufacture to be undertaken in several different countries. Czechoslovakia was one such country and it went on to produce 10 Tatra 131s and 300 Bu 131s, plus 260 Aero C.104s after 1945. The SSH T-131 was launched in March 1990 and is actually Polish but production is based on the engineering drawings of the Czech Bü-131 version.
