This is the last build Avia 14, manufactured in 1960 and test flown by Avia as OK-OZB. Delivered to Air Guinée in June 1960 as 3X-PRG and re-registered to 3X-GPA in 1961. Returned to Czechoslovakia in 1964 and was active for the Czechoslovak Air Force from 1965 till 1985 as 5101.

At this point the aircraft was undergoing restoration prior to receiving its painted livery, as well as the addition of tip tanks.

This Av-14 has been superbly restored by Letecké Múzeum Slávnica of Aeroklub Dubnica. Dubnica was our back-up plan after the museum at Piestany decided to close for all of September without putting this (rather important) piece of information on their website. It worked out for the best as LZDB was wonderful: great planes & weather and lovely people.
