Judging the available sources, those designs aren't related. The bi-plane design is said to have been based
on the PZL-106 Kruk agriculture aircraft and was intended as a firefighting aircraft. The designation "PZL-118"
can be found for it, too ( http://www.luftfahrt-eisenach.de/ddr-luftfahrtforum/magic_viewtopic.php?f=95&t=770 ).
The other design could be a business/private aircraft derivative of the PZL-130 Turbo Orlik trainer, I think.

The first picture is obviously distorted. I have attempted to restore it to a more accurate width and enhance it a bit.

Hi Hesham,

Is there a book where these Polish aircraft drawings came from? That may be the only source to get them from now since all of the links in this thread are dead.
