| Source measurement | On 10 June 1959, the prototype Rallye, powered by a 90 hp (67 kW) engine, conducted its maiden flight . On 21 November 1961, the first production versions of the aircraft, designated as the MS.880B and more powerful MS.885 , received their type certification , clearing them to perform operational flights. Thereafter, a range of improvements and alterations were progressively made upon the design as new models of the Rallye were introduced; typical advances included the adoption of more powerful engines, improved payload capability, and strengthened structure, the addition of wheel fairings, increased ground clearance for the propeller, expanded rudder and ailerons , and changes to the cockpit canopy arrangement.[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Development; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage In the late 1960s, SOCATA pursued the development of an enlarged 7-seat version powered by a 300 hp (220 kW) Lycoming IO-540-K engine, the ST.60 Rallye 7. Two prototypes were constructed: a version with retractable tricycle landing gear , first flown on 3 January 1969, and an otherwise similar aircraft with fixed landing gear. However, SOCATA was not confident that a sufficient market for the aircraft existed, and no further production ensued. SOCATA subsequently introduced the enlarged MS.890 Rallye Commodore series with a heavier airframe and four seats; production and development of the MS.880 and MS.890 series continued in parallel, and the enlarged and strengthened empennage of the MS.890 was adapted to MS.880 variants using more powerful engines and those approved for spins .[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Development; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Also in the late 1960s, United States aviation entrepreneur Alexander Berger—whose Allied Aero Industries holding company owned the Franklin Engine Company and Jacobs Aircraft Engine Company —formed a new venture to market European light aircraft under the banner of the defunct Waco Aircraft Company . Based in Pottstown, Pennsylvania , Waco made arrangements to market, sell, and service the Rallye throughout the sizable and attractive North American market, and introduced a licensed American-built version of the Rallye Commodore badged as the Waco MS.294A Minerva , powered by a 220 hp (160 kW) Franklin engine. Waco also sold the 150ST, 180CT and 235CT in the United States. However, the Rallye had little time to prove itself prior to Waco winding up its aviation activities following Berger's death in 1971. As a consequence of Waco's dissolution, third party aviation companies purchased the various leftover assets and continued to provide spare parts and services to American owners of the Rallye.[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Development; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The aircraft's power was provided from one of a range of progressively more powerful air-cooled engines; such as the early Rallye Cub model, which was powered by a 100 hp (75 kW) Continental O-200-A engine, while the newer Rallye 235 variant was furnished with a 235 hp (175 kW) Lycoming O-540 engine.[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The Rallye was fitted with a bulbous cockpit, which was capable of accommodating two/three people in the basic lower-powered variants and up to four personnel within the more powerful models of the aircraft, some of which were designed to function as glider tugs and banner bearers . The canopy slides rearwards to provide access to and from the cockpit, aided by a step located just underneath the wing's trailing edge; on the ground. On the ground, the canopy should remain slightly open when occupied to allow for adequate airflow; in flight, the canopy can be left open at speed up to a maximum of 94 knots.[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Two-seat prototype powered by 90 hp (67 kW) Continental C90-14F , conventional landing gear , 1 built.[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Variants / French production / Lightweight airframe (MS.880 series); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Production version of MS.880B with 100 hp (75 kW) Continental O-200-A , 1,100 built.[source]SOCATA Rallye family · Variants / French production / Lightweight airframe (MS.880 series); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage 105 hp (78 kW) Potez engine. 12 built.
