[1][2][3] Development of the Pegazair started in 1985 by Serg Dufour of Mont-Saint-Michel, Quebec.

Originally it consisted of a new set of Pega-STOL wings with retractable leading edge slats to be installed on Zenair CH 701 STOLs to replace their wings which have fixed leading edge slots.

The Pegazair is a two seats in side-by-side configuration, strut-braced, high-wing monoplane with conventional landing gear.

Fuselage construction is welded steel tubing with aluminum skin.

The wings employ full length flaperons and leading edge slats that deploy automatically.
