About Morane-Saulnier - Morane-Saulnier MS.885 Super Rallye

The Morane-Saulnier MS.885 Super Rallye is a classic French single-engine, four-seat light aircraft designed and manufactured by Morane-Saulnier, which later became part of SOCATA. Developed in the early 1960s, this aircraft is celebrated for its outstanding Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) performance, robust all-metal construction, and remarkable low-speed handling characteristics. Its distinctive design features a low-wing configuration with full-span automatic leading-edge slats and large slotted flaps, making it an exceptionally safe and pilot-friendly aircraft. This specific aircraft, registered HB-EDX in Switzerland, represents a well-preserved example of European aviation history. Typically powered by a reliable 145-horsepower Lycoming engine, the MS.885 is highly appreciated by recreational pilots and flying clubs for touring, flight training, and operating from short or unimproved grass airstrips. Its spacious cabin accommodates up to four occupants under a large sliding canopy that offers superb 360-degree visibility. 1962 Morane MS885 Rallye For sale due to the owner’s advanced age.
