1.) C-210 wasn't the desigantion of an unarmed trainer but the designation for S-199 before 1947. In August 1947 the designation was changed from C-10 to S-99, C-110 to CS-99 and C-210 to S-199 (it was the C-210.1, the prototype). The CS-199 had never another designation because the first a/c was flown after August 1947. (Look --- there is an contradiction between the Wiki-text and the Wiki-version list.)

2.) The first flight was on 25 April 1947, 02.32 pm, and not in March.The production ended 1951 with the S-199.543. The last CS-199, the CS-199.582 was delivered on 22 September 1950.

Have a look on the sources --- there is not one source in Czech language.

Best regards
