Evening all,

AviaFrance says there was an earlier MDG LD.26 "Midgy Club" that had a Mathis G4F a 75 hp engine which may have been shorter, but I think that was a horizontally-opposed twin. However, the Flight article mentions that it would be available as an airframe without engine, but I can't find any pictures of it, or the LD.45 displayed at Paris in '46, so who knows?
