Querey was a glider pilot and aeromodeller and his idea was to run a ''Aviation Service Station'' similar to a motor-vehicle garage. His first aircraft was a conversion of a Piper Cub followed by his own two-seater design, the SAN-101. The SAN-101 did not enter production and Querey started to build the Jodel D.11 under licence. From 1952 the company built other Jodel designs under licence and these were followed by two models exclusive to SAN, the SAN Jodel D.140 Mousquetaire, D.140 Mousquetaire four/five seater and the SAN Jodel D.150 Mascaret, D.150 Mascaret two-seater.

Piper Cub
The Piper J-3 Cub is an American light aircraft that was built between 1938 and 1947 by Piper Aircraft. The aircraft has a simple, lightweight design which gives it good low-speed handling properties and short-field performance. The Cub is Piper Aircraft's second most-produced model after the PA-28 Cherokee series (>32,000 produced) with over 20,000 built in the United States. Its simplicity, affordability and popularity invokes comparisons to the Ford Model T automobile. The aircraft is a high-wing, strut-braced monoplane with a large-area rectangular wing. It is most often powered by an air-cooled, flat-4 piston engine driving a fixed-pitch propeller. Its fuselage is a welded steel frame covered in fabric, seating two people in tandem. The Cub was designed as a trainer. It had great popularity in this role and as a general aviation aircraft.
