The aircraft has a small overall dimensions, and therefore is capable of carrying only two people on board, and therefore the operational capabilities of this aircraft are very seriously limited. The aircraft is positioned primarily as a private aircraft, however, among other things, it can also be used for training flights, which is mainly facilitated by twin control. The transportation of any cargo on board the Pazmany PL-1 aircraft is not possible due to the lack of adequate free space, and according to experts, it is for this reason that the aircraft has not been able to gain widespread distribution in the United States, although its cost is -technical characteristics clearly predisposed to this.

With its compact dimensions, the plane Pazmany PL-1 has a high maneuverability, which in some cases allows you to use the aircraft as a sports aircraft.
