The contents of the stub article appear to me to be already included in the properly-named article, though I may be wrong, as I'm not really all that well-versed in Czech 1970's trainer aircraft.

I have restored the sole photo that we have of a Zlin 242, that another editor deleted with the edit summary: "removed photo with bad quality". This photo is a scanned 35 mm print, so it will not be as good as a digital photograph. I think the quality is acceptable for this article, but mostly I didn't see any point in deleting it when the alternative is to have no picture of this model. - Ahunt ( talk) 19:08, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
According to this article, the Tamil Tigers use Z142s, but according to Zlín Z 43 they use Z 143s - Any relaible sources saying which is which? Nigel Ish ( talk) 15:14, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
The "stall speed (clean)" is not the same as the stall speed with flaps down. This is a strong contradiction that needs to be sorted out.

The article currently lists only military operators, thus giving the wrong impression this aircraft was primarily a military trainer. It was not. Listing all known civil operators (countries) as well would help, but we could end up with a very long list.
The East German air force did not operate Z-42 aircraft, but 12 Z-43.
Please note that listing Tamil Eelam as an operator is technically wrong. Tamil Eelam is the state some Tamil groups intend to establish, i.e. it is an idea, but it does not exist. For the same reason, Tamil Eelam cannot be labelled as a terrorist organization. I suggest replacing "Tamil Eelam" in the list of former military operators by "Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam". How about calling it a guerrilla force or a separatist organization? Labelling this group as a terrorist organization may appear obvious to many of us, but it is POV. This is illustrated by the fact that only 32 countries proscribe the Tamil Tigers as a terrorist organization.

There is a statement indicating that the Z-42 was used for basic air force training. Unfortunately, there is no reference provided to verify this claim. Since Eastern Bloc air forces did not perform any kind of ab-initio flight training (on fixed wing aircraft) and given the very basic equipment and instrumentation of the Z-42/Z-142, this air force training role is rather unlikely.

The Wikipedia artcle on the Zlin 42 states that it has an all-flying tail, but the photos indicate otherwise. - 199.44.16.128 ( talk) 00:04, 8 April 2011 (UTC)Kirby Palm palmk@nettally.com
Might be, but it's not. I've looked at several photos of Zlin 42's found via Google Image search, and none of them have all-flying tails. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.44.16.128 ( talk) 00:17, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
The Zlin 42 has a very distinctive spinner on the prop. Does anyone know what it's about? It almost appears to have air intakes on it or something.
