Brochet MB.80


The Brochet MB.80 was a two-seat light aircraft developed in France in the early 1950s.

Design and development

The MB.80 was a derivative of the Brochet MB.70, using essentially the same airframe, but with a redesigned wider fuselage and revised undercarriage. The Service [de l'Aviation Légère et Sportive] purchased ten examples for distribution to French aeroclubs. Most examples were operated in France, but one example was later sold privately to the United Kingdom.
