Specially
conceived to fly to the Boulangerie, get the highest possible number of
baguettes and croissants and get back on time for breakfast with minimum
fuss.
A collaborative venture between Nicolas
Roland Payen and Aubrun originated this cute little French plane that was
propelled by a 25 hp AVA engine.
It flew in 1935 and 1936 receiving later a
40 hp engine which modified a tad the nose profile.

At
4.95 meters of wingspan this tiny plane was a consistent flyer of which a
derivative, two-place version was conceived but ultimately not produced.
Quite a sight it must have been with those curvaceous, moth-like elegant
lines and the purr of the small power plant.
