The Jodel Ambassadeur is a French three/four seat single-engined light aircraft of the 1950s and 60s. A number of versions of the aircraft were built, both by Pierre Robin's Centre-Est Aeronautique and by Société Aeronautique Normande, with well over 400 examples being built.
In the late 1950s, Pierre Robin, a French flying instructor, was interested in building a three-seat version of the Jodel D11 light aircraft. The result of a collaboration between Robin and the designer of the Jodel, Jean Delemontez was the Jodel DR.100 Ambassadeur, [2] which made its maiden flight on 14 July 1958. [3]
The Ambassadeur was certified on 10 July 1959, [3] entering production both at Robin's own company, Centre-Est Aeronautique at Dijon and under license by Société Aeronautique Normande at Bernay.
