The club I'm in has had one for several years. No problems other than that
the paint job was lousy--came off in big sheets. We repainted the ship and
Blanik covered some/most of that expense.

Our club is seriously considering buying a Blanik L-33 but I have heard a
few reports that the fuselage can be easily damged if a tail first landing
is made. I would appreciate it very much if clubs that own an L-33 could
give me guidance.

Is a Blanik L-33 rugged enough for club use?

Does the paint last?

Is it easy to work on? I know that the L-23 and L-13 are difficult to
service.

Does Blanik support it well? Are parts readily available? Is it expensive
to
fix?

On the balance would you recommend an L-33 for club use?

Thank you for any information.
