Morane-Saulnier MS.660

The Morane-Saulnier MS.660 was a prototype French single-seat light aircraft intended to be sold as a kit for assembly at home. After the Second World War Morane-Saulnier, expecting a boom in private aviation in France, designed a simple aircraft whose sections could be assembled on a living-room table. It was a high-wing monoplane with a fixed tricycle landing gear, a plywood fuselage built in three sections and folding rectangular wings with duralumin spars, powered by a 50 horsepower Train 4E-01 inverted inline engine. The prototype first flew at the company's Puteaux works on 14 February 1946 and was shown at Toussus-le-Noble in April, but it attracted little attention, and the MS.661 and MS.662 that followed also led to no production.
