The Kupé was constructed with a steel tube fuselage and wooden wings, covered with plywood and fabric. The wings could be folded for staorage. The prototype first February 14, 1938, registered as OY-DAN (c/n 3), it was sold to A/S Nordisk Lufttrafik at Kastrup, Denmark. At least twelve aircraft had been produced before the German occupation, April 9, 1940.
