The Dewoitine D.7 was a French sport plane built in the mid 1920s.
The D.7 was a conventionally laid-out monoplane, with a thick cantilever shoulder wing. Its single seat, open cockpit, provided with a small windscreen, was over the wing. It had conventional, fixed, tailskid landing gear.
The D.7 could be powered by any small engine; the Salmson AD.3 radial engine, the Clerget 2K flat twin, Vaslin flat-four or Vaslin water-cooled six cylinder inline engines were fitted.
