Brena wanted to make a light, general-purpose aircraft, which led to the S.205.

The aircraft was all-metal, low-winged, single-engined and provided space for four persons.

Further development led into the S.208, which had a 260 hp engine, retractable landing gear, and 5 seats.

[citation needed] Approximately 65 fuselages were transported to the United States, to be assembled in Syracuse, New York by the Waco Aircraft Company.
