Jodel D 140 history and development
The Jodel D 140 Mousquetaire is a wood-construction, low-wing tailwheel touring aircraft developed by SAN from the Jodel family. The main touring versions use 180 hp Lycoming O-360 engines and a 1,200 kg maximum takeoff mass. The D140 series includes several subvariants, including the mountain/tow-oriented Abeille derivatives, with differences in canopy, baggage and mission equipment. Published long-range fuel figures reach roughly 270 L, but exact capacity is variant-specific.

Jodel D 140 model applicability and configuration
Treat the 270 L fuel figure as a long-range/variant figure rather than universal to every D140. Use DGAC-FR type data and the aircraft's operating handbook to identify exact subvariant and tank installation.
