The prototype NC.840-01 Chardonneret's most direct development was the NC.856 Norvigie (photo), an AOP for the Armee de Terre with the 145 hp Regnier 4LO-4 four-cyl inverted in-line engine and variable pitch propeller. Major differences from the NC.840 were the tailwheel undercarriage, more suitable for short landings on unprepared surfaces, and a twin fin tail unit.

Civil development of the NC.840 resulted in the NC.850 and 851 Club with 75 hp flat four Minie 4DC-32 or Mathis G4-F and this also had a single fin tail unit. (on photo NC.851-01 F-WDVX with fellow competitor SO.90-01 alongside)

Twin fins and rudders were introduced on the NC.853 which first flew 15.3.48 and won, jointly with the Sipa 901, a French Air Ministry design competition for a 2-seat trainer/tourer with contracts for 100 aircraft. Production was then standardized on two variants, the NC.853 with Minie 4DC-32 and the NC.854 with the same airframe but with 65 hp Continental A-65 (on photo, NC.854 c/n 13 F-BFIB of the Aero Club Air France). The NC.853-01 prototype was F-WEPG, the NC.854-01 prototype was F-BDZI, and numbers of NC.853 were converted to NC.854 by engine change.

As described in the Paris 1946 report, the SE.2300/2310/2311 series were changed around on the three airframes built. 01 was SE.2300 F-WBBD with tailwheel u/c, later F-BBBD. 02 introduced the tricycle undercarriage as SE.2310 F-WBBK, F-BBBK, later F-BBBM (photo). 03 was the SE.2310 initially , SE.2311 later, and F-BEEL throughout.

The SUC 10 Courlis was widely operated, c/n 38 F-BEKQ (photo) being used by Airmondial's Photoavia to fly photographers to aviation and other events. C/n 98 F-WEVZ was modified to SUC 11G Super Courlis by replacing the 200 hp Mathis G8R with a 240 hp Continental O-470-M.

After the unregistered giant prototype NC.211-01 Cormoran crashed on the approach on its first flight in July 1948, killing the crew of five, investigations showed that its elevators were not powerful enough to counter the effect on trim when the flaps were fully lowered. As a result the second aircraft, c/n 1 F-WFKH, (photo) had all the tail surfaces and their control areas increased and it was flown successfully in April 1949. Further construction was abandoned however and F-WFKH was scrapped.

The prototype NC.840-01 Chardonneret F-WCDD displayed at the Paris Salon first flew 8.46 from Toussus-le-Noble (photo, note the AAC.1s parked on the field). It was re-registered as F-BCDD on 2.7.47. Its most direct development was the NC.856 Norvigie, an AOP for the Armee de Terre with the 145 hp Regnier 4LO-4 four-cyl inverted in-line engine and variable pitch propeller.

The Breguet G.11E-01 (photo) was flown initially with the 240 hp Potez 9E nine cylinder radial engine but later a 450 hp P&W R985-SB5 nine cylinder radial was fitted and the fuselage was lengthened by insertions fore and aft of the rotor pylon. It was registered F-WFKC and after testing was donated to the Musee de l'Air. The same test marks were also used by the second Breguet 900.

The M.D.G. L.D. 45 Single-seat Light Biplane (40 h.p. Mathis G2F engine).
Another ultra-light biplane displayed at Paris in 1946 was an aerobatic single seater with a very similar layout to Jean Chapeau JC.1 Levrier. This was the MDG LD.45-01 prototype with a 40 hp 2-cyl Mathis G2-F engine which had a wingspan of 19 ft 5 in and a length of 14 ft 4 in. The narrow chord interchangeable wings had full span hinged trailing edges connected as ailerons on the lower wing and as slotted flaps on the upper.

The second prototype, the LD.45-02 F-WCDV (photo) was similar to LD.45-01 but without spats. The LD.45-04 Planchais F-PHQN differed only in having a 60 hp 4-cyl inverted in-line Walter Mikron engine, making it 5 inches longer. The LD.46 was a 2-seat version developed as the LD.46-01 F-BEAM with 65 hp Continental A65 flat four engine. As a result of the tandem seating balanced by a lengthened nose, the overall length became 3 ft 6 in longer at 17 ft 10in. Wing span was increased to 23 ft and it was named Midgy Club. None of the miniature biplanes was produced in numbers and they were eclipsed in popularity by the early Jodel monoplanes.

The SE.2100-01 "tailless" monoplane completed its test programme without, it would appear, ever carrying its allotted experimental registration F-WBBZ. The photographs show its clean lines, interrupted only by the fixed tricycle undercarriage. Aileron and elevator controls were combined in "elevons" on the trailing edge of the wing. Spot welding and stamping were widely used in its construction as it was intended to apply methods used in the motor car industry but lack of sales interest prevented manufacture of a production run.

The NC.2001 Abeille helicopter with twin intermeshing rotors was presented at Paris as having a retractable undercarriage but stowage space for this appeared to be non-existent. During early ground tests it was mounted on a massive frame with motor vehicle wheels but later it had the fixed u/c seen in the photograph. Any benefits that might have resulted from its unusually shaped rotors were apparently not worth the resulting production complications as nothing more was heard of them, or of the NC.2001, after tests were completed.
