Ikarus Type 214-D * Retired *
Twenty-one Type 214-D delivered from 1957. Twin-engined crew trainer or light transport. First prototype (214) had fixed landing gear and in-line engines. It crashed fatally on it's first flight 7 August 1949. Second prototype also with in-line engines, but enlarged tail surfaces, flew 1951. Subsequently fitted with Pratt & Whitney radial engines and flown in 1955. Ordered into production July 1955. Production aircraft (214D) had radial engines and were delivered 1957-1960.
Second prototype converted to 214F photo-reconnaissance role flew 10 October 1957. One production aircraft converted to 214PP anti-submarine role, but found to be unsuitable. An improved anti-submarine version, the 214AM2, first flew 14 June 1962. A version designated 214AS was possibly the crew trainer. While the 214P was another version. The Type 214 was used by the 97th Aviation Regt.
In 1967, the type was withdrawn from service and six of them given to the Aeronautical Union of Yugoslavia (VSJ - Vazduhoplovni Savez Jugoslavije) for use as transports and for parachuting. They were registered: YU-ABN (Ljubljana), YU-ABO (Vršac), YU-ABP (Skopje), YU-ABR (Sarajevo), YU-ABS (Zagreb) and YU-ABT (Novi Sad). In the following year YU-ABO and YU-ABP switched their home bases. The type was finally retired in the mid-1970s.
