Short historical background:
The Air Scouts built 9 of this basic trainer at their central workshop in Budapest and distributed them across the country to different Air Scouts groups. However as the production of Rubik's R-07a Tücsök and R-07b Vöcsök run up this type was gradually phased out from regular basic training. A couple of such gliders survived the war but they were never used for regular trainig again.
