 After nearly a year, an order for 10 aircraft was placed, which were delivered to the air force's pilot training school at Tecuci.The new trainer soon found recognition, flown by SET chief test pilot Gheorghe Stefanescu to first place in the aerobatics competition at the 1929 Romanian national aviation meet, and by Lt Octav Oculeanu to win the Aviator Mircea Zorileanu Cup at Bucharest later that year.In December 1930, the air force placed an order for 20 more aircraft in two slightly different batches.
