Blériot-SPAD S.72

The Blériot-SPAD S.72 was a French one-seat, single-engine biplane flight training aircraft designed in the 1920s. The S.72 was a biplane of wood and metal construction. The specification lists a crew of one, a length of 6.35 m, a wingspan of 7.82 m, a height of 2.60 m and a wing area of 18.00 square metres. Its empty weight was 634 kg and its gross weight 874 kg, and a single Hispano-Suiza eight-cylinder V inline engine of 130 kW gave it a maximum speed of 189 km/h. The article gives no service history, no operators and no production figure for the type, so little more can be stated about it from that page.
