Short historical background:

Hungary had entered the war and in 1943 during the eastern campaign the Hungarian troops took hold of seven Russian gliders and transported them back to Hungary. One of them was an Sz-10 two-seater basic trainer and was allocated to the Air Scouts. This glider's home airport was Hármashatárhegy. The glider survived the war and was in use till the end of the 1940s however it was never used for regular training.
