As seen in the DDR Interflug livery. This was the third series of this twin-engine short-range transport aircraft built by the Czech aircraft manufacturer LET; UVP is from the Russian for "short take-off and landing." This had a seating capacity of 15. Since 1969, more than 1,100 of the L-410 airframe have been produced and roughly 500 remain in service. The majority were delivered to the former Soviet Union, but have been resold, particularly to airlines in Asia, Africa and South America.
Last 3 September the Russian company UGMK
(Iskander Machmudov) became the wholesale owner of LET Kunovice
Aircraft Industries and announced that they would move production of
the L-410 to Russia within a year
