The SLAF Museum in Ratmalana holds the remains of this Zlin 143 used by the Tamil Eelam guerilla armed forces or Air Tigers in an attack on the SLAF HQ in Colombo on 20 February 2009. In 2007, they had smuggled up to five Zlin 43 to Sri Lanka to be used in their attacks on government forces. In the attack, both Zlins were shot down, and 905 is said to be one of them.

Airframe identity not confirmed. The Tamil Eelam Air Force had a small number of light aircraft and ultra lights which were used during the civil war in the 2000s. Two Tamil Tiger Zlin 143 were lost during an attack on Colombo on 20 February 2009. One aircraft flew into a tax office building, whereas the other (905) was shot down by anti-aircraft fire near the international airport of Colombo. What is left of it is now at the Sri Lanka Air Force Museum.
