The Bleriot-SPAD S.27 was a small French airliner developed soon after World War I. It was produced as a way for the Blériot company to find new markets for its wartime products in the postwar market in this instance by adapting the design of the S.20 fighter plane into a small airliner. Accommodation for two passengers was provided in a small cabin within the fuselage but in other respects the S.27 strongly resembled its predecessor.
