History:
The Stampe et Vertongen S.V.4 is probably one of the Belgian aeronautical industry's most outstanding successes. Jean Stampe's aim was to design a training plane with very good aerobatic capabilities, which as the SV4's career proves, is something that he did very well.
The French and Belgian air forces both lacked training aircraft following WWII. In 1947, Belgium ordered sixty-five of the S.V.4b version, although these differed slightly from the pre-war version, being fitted with a more powerful Gipsy Major X engine and having a removable sliding canopy. France initially ordered 701 SV4's powered by a 4-POI Renault engine built under licence in Sartrouville, and then ordered 150 more units to be built in Algeria. The Renault powered version was designated Stampe S.V.4c.
Stampes, although used primarily for liaison duties and elementary training, also won many international aerobatics competitions. France and Belgium sold Stampes to clubs and individuals who still use them nowadays. The owners and enthusiasts of this remarkably successful design are supported by the "Stampe Club".
The UK's Tiger Club uses Stampes for aerial shows, and one of these planes, a S.V.4b registered as G-ATKC, even went to Moscow in 1968. Douglas Bianchi used Stampes with slight modifications to play the role of WWI fighters in movies like Aces High. Stampes are very popular in the UK where their colourful old biplane layout and colourful liveries still attract attention.
Specs: Single engined two-seat aerobatic capable trainer biplane. Wingspan: 8,39 m (upper wing) and 8 m (lower wing), length 6,97 m, wing area 8,06 m2, weight (empty) 529 kg, maximum weight 770 kg. With a Renault 4-PO3 engine, maximum speed at sea level 198 km/h.
