Morane-Saulnier MS.760 Paris
The Paris
“The business jet that arrived ten years before the Learjet.”
Morane-Saulnier · military
The MS.760 Paris is a four-seat jet from 1954, with two tiny Marboré turbojets in the wing roots and a sliding canopy over all four seats. France and Argentina used it as a liaison aircraft and trainer, but it was really the first business jet, flying executives around Europe years before the Learjet existed. About ten still fly, almost all in private hands in the United States.
The Paris had no cabin door: all four occupants climbed in through a sliding canopy, the way you would board a fighter.
A long canopy over four seats in two rows, a T-tail, and the jet exhausts just behind the wing on each side. Nothing else this small has a T-tail and two jets.
One might be overhead right now.
Bogey turns the The Paris from a dot in the sky into a card in your logbook.
