    Notes: This version of the Fitter-A, the SU-7 BKL, has a strenghtened main landing gear with a wider track and lower pressure tyres to make it suitable to operate from non-strengthened surfaces, like grass runways. The skids next to the MLG are for improving the braking action on grassy runways.
