The Czech Republic, a country with a long and impressive record in world competition aerobatics, is fielding a full 5 member Men's team. Surprisingly, they are all flying the German Extra 300S, an unusual circumstance since the Cezchoslovokian Zlin aircraft have traditionally been among the best in the world. The latest Zlin 50, however is somewhat dated.
