Torossian envisaged a market for 1000 aircraft, and during the development of the prototype was looking for a company to mass-produce it.
Construction was started at Cerny Aerodrome, La Ferté-Alais by Torossian and a group of friends, who together formed a group known as the Association Tegas, a reversal of the surname of Dassault test pilot Jean-Marie Saget.
The aircraft, registered F-WGBT and nicknamed "Cargolito", first flew on 30 April 1997,[3] but this may have just consisted of a few hops along the runway.

The horizontal tailplane is attached to the underside of a rear boom, with twin fins and rudders on the tips.
