SAI KZ IV

The SAI KZ IV was a light twin-engined aircraft first built in Denmark in 1944 for use as an air ambulance.

It was a conventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane with twin tails, mounted on the ends of the horizontal stabiliser.

Power was provided by two engines mounted in nacelles on the wings that also housed the main units of the fixed, tailwheel undercarriage.

The cabin could hold two stretchers, two medical attendants, and a flight crew of two.

That same year, the OY-DIZ was christened with the name Folke Bernadotte in honour of the Swedish count who had used this very aircraft to make a diplomatic visit to Germany to negotiate for the release of Danish prisoners in German concentration camps near the end of the war.
