Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "The four-seat Horizon was designed by Yves Gardan and the prototype, F-WJDU (later F-BJDU) c/n 01, made its first flight on July 21, 1960, a further six aircraft (c/n 02 to 07) were produced. On July 10, 1962 Sud-Aviation obtained a license to produce the Horizon. Sud-Aviation, and from 1966 its subsidiary SOCATA, produced 260 aircraft (c/n 1 to 260), all with Lycoming engines, either a 150 hp O-320-A, a 160 hp O-320-B, or a 180 hp O-360A. Production was ceased in late 1968.

The pictured aircraft was produced by Sud-Aviation and registered F-BLPT in 1964, on July 7, 1972 it was registered in the UK as G-AZYA."
