The SETCA Milan was a French-built two-seat light utility aircraft of the 1940s.

Contents

Design and development

The Milan was designed by Messrs. Laboureix and Lagrevol as a two-seat side-by-side light utility aircraft. It was of all-wood construction with a fixed spatted tricycle undercarriage and had dual controls. Powered by a 90 h.p. Regnier 4-EO engine, it first flew in 1947.

Production and service

The Milan obtained its CNRA in August 1949. Its normal certificat de navigabilite was awarded in 1952. The prototype F-BCZZ was flown until at least 1957, but plans for further production did not reach fruition.
