Military version of the Dragon Rapide from 1934. The aircraft proved itself to be extremely useful in World War II, especially as a training aircraft. It was used for this purpose and as a post-war liaison aircraft for the Luftwaffe. Two aircraft were sold on the Belgian civilian market, the rest were scrapped. The D7 is still airworthy in Germany today.
