Development


SAN had been producing the earlier Jodel D.117 under licence from which it then developed the larger 4 to 5-seat D.140.[1] The prototype D.140 registration F-BIZE first flew on 4 July 1958.[1] Early versions had a low triangular-shaped fin and rudder.

The final version was a glider tug variant the D.140R Abeille.[1] Both the D.140E and D.140R were ordered by the French Air Force.[1] As well as 243 factory-built aircraft more than 20 have been homebuilt from plans. The type was flown by aero clubs and private owners and remains in use in 2014.

Plans remained available in 2015.[2][3]
