Robert, the idea to build this plane came when I bought the Z-226 Trainer kit in the Dual combo edition (two identical kits in one box). I was wondering what kind of machine to build from the second kit.
While searching for the materials to build the model, I found photos of machines that participated in the Antwerp Air Show in Belgium in 1969. These were four Z-226s - one two-seat Z-226 Trener and three aerobatic Z-226 AS. All four aircraft received the same attractive paint scheme of white, red and black.

I decided to build two of these machines, one two-seater and one aerobatic. They will fit well in a pair.
