Photo Comment

First flown in January 1958 and intended to replace the Piper Pa18 and Cessna L-19 in service with the ALAT, two prototypes were followed by 150 production aircraft. Built between 1959 and 1961, principally for use in Algeria, the type was not particularly successful, quickly being superseded by helicopters in its observation and Medevac role.
