Design and development

A further derivative of the Brochet MB.70 family, generally similar to those aircraft, the MB.110 was a substantially new and enlarged design. Apart from a bigger passenger cabin with one more seat than previous models, the wing and tail were redesigned, and a more powerful engine was fitted. Two examples were built. The prototype aircraft first flew at Chavenay-Villepreux airfield near Paris on 12 March 1956.
