Thanks to the rare willingness of Mr. Bohuslav Česenek, a long-time member of the PZN and RTZ units in Hradec Králové, I obtained a photograph of the "Tornado" from the airport Hradec Králové, when it formed part of the peacetime numbers table for the local 31st Radio Engineering Platoon LZS Class III.
The photo is from the archive of one of the then gonists, Rtm. Květoslav Kabrt.
As the photograph was accompanied by a map drawing, I searched http://kontaminace.cenia.cz/- for the year of the photograph 1954 cadastral number of the plot 157/16 Loc 50°14'17.943 "N, 15°51'32.438 "E The site was located 650 m from the threshold of runway 34 on the road from Pouchov to Piletice.
