history

The aircraft had been built for the national Service de l'Aviation Légère et Sportive (SALS), which had the contract to equip aero clubs with aircraft and instructors. The aircraft had a boxer engine type Minié 4 DC-32 with 75 hp . The aircraft with a top speed of 170 km / h was developed by Chapeau & Blanchet .

The aircraft was a further development of the Aéro 110 prototype, which first flew on May 1, 1950. This predecessor had a 45 HP radial engine Salmson 9ADB and only a spur instead of a rear wheel and no wheel brakes. In addition, the rear fuselage of the 110 was a fabric-covered tubular steel construction, while the 101 was made of wood. The wings of the biplane both had the same wingspan and the wingspan remained the same for both types.
