    Thank you for the upload - lovely historical footage. I feel the viewing experience would be enhanced with the use of rather less-depressing background music...

    5:44 Sandbags in the cockpit? Interesting ballast choice , they don't look very secure .

      Its could be a 1956 because prototypes were produced in spring of this year. 1958 is start of mass production in Let Kunovice.

      And another comment after some research, Blanik OK-6201 was the first prototype. Ok, I found czech text which describes fate of the first two Blaniks (OK-6201 and 6202), both were damaged and actual OK-6201 from video was created by their merging and it was send to France in 1956.
