Utva Trojka
The Utva C-3 Trojka (Trey) was a light aircraft built in Yugoslavia shortly after World War II as a result of a government competition to develop a new, domestically built aircraft with which to equip the country's flying clubs. The winning design was submitted by Boris Cijan and [Emin Hadzic]] and the prototype was built by Ikarus as the Ikarus 251. Series production took place at Utva as the C-3. It was a conventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage. The pilot and instructor sat side by side under an expansive canopy. The type remained in production until the mid-1950s with later examples powered by the more powerful Walter Mikron 4.

gollark: I use Void Linux for purposes, I find it much nicer than Raspbian. Also more lightweight.
gollark: Perhaps it has some sort of connection tracking limit.
gollark: Not unsafe in the sense that it'll do undefined behaviour probably, just that you can't statically be sure it only contains the type you want.
gollark: It's a wildly unsafe and slow "generic", and you can write fast code with generics. More so than if you have to unsafely typecast any time you want a data structure other than the 3 built-in ones.
gollark: (I know they seem to be working on them now, but it's after years of denying they were necessary or good)
