History & design
A French continuation of a German design
The Noralpha grew out of the Messerschmitt Me 208, itself a tricycle-undercarriage development related to the Me 108. Work continued in France after the war using a Renault 6Q engine. Ailes Anciennes Toulouse describes seven pre-series aircraft and the first production example, number 8, appearing at the 1946 Grand Palais exhibition.

Ramier service and later civil use
The family’s two hundred aircraft served with French military users under the Ramier name before passing into civil training and transport work. The retractable undercarriage and electrically controlled propeller made them useful for progression beyond elementary trainers. The Renault 6Q10 identifies the Nord 1101; the opposite-rotation 6Q11 installation was designated 1102.
