The fuselage was lightened, part of the electrical system was deleted, the flaps were mechanically operated, an extra 11 gal (42 l) fuel tank was installed, and the original 105 hp Walter Minor 4-III was replaced by an 165 hp Walter Minor 6-III.
Reregistered OK-JED the Z 226 T was first flown by Moravan test pilot Leopoldem Brabcem on April 12, 1956, and its gained its Type Certificate 55470-1957 on October 25, 1957. Between March 1957 and December 1961 a total of 283 of the Z 226 T were produced.
On April 29, 1958 OK-JED was sold to Belgium where it was registered as OO-AJT to Van der Noot d'Assche of Brussels. On October 31, 1961 it was sold to France, being registered as F-BKRX to L. Biancotto, and subsequently it was registered in Tunisia as TS-BCD.
