About This File
Praga E.211 OK-BFA was developed by ČMS (ČKD) in Czechoslovakia in 1947 as a candidate for a new light twin-engine tourist aircraft. After a busy period of flight tests, the design was considered as satisfying (despite the overall wooden structure), however it never entered serial production because of the success of its concurrent (Aero Ae-45).
