The story
The MS.760 Paris is a four-seat jet from 1954, with two small Marboré turbojets in the wing roots, tip tanks, and one sliding canopy over all four seats. France, Argentina and Brazil flew it as a liaison aircraft and trainer for decades, and in the late 1950s Beech marketed it in North America as the first business jet on the market.
The Paris had no cabin door: all four occupants climbed in through a sliding canopy, the way you would board a fighter.
