Skandinavisk Aero Industri A/S (abbreviated SAI) was a Danish manufacturer of aeroplanes that existed between 1937 and 1954. The company was founded by technician Viggo Kramme (1905–1984) and engineer Karl Gustav Zeuthen (1909–1989) and based in Copenhagen.
The company's aeroplanes were labelled "KZ" for Kramme and Zeuthen, the first being the KZ I from 1937. The KZ IV was built as an ambulance plane for Zone-Redningskorpset and introduced in 1944. Post-war sales never reached the company's expectations, and production turned unprofitable in the early 1950s, driving the company to shutdown. In total, about 200 planes were built by the company.
A number of the KZ planes have been preserved. As of 2005, Dansk Veteranflysamling (The Danish Collection of Vintage Aircraft) exhibits a specimen of each of the 11 aircraft models manufactured by the company.

Rare to see a scratch built model of an aircraft with such history. This unique RC aeroplane was displayed by members of the Royal Air Force Model Aircraft Association (RAFMAA) at the ModelAir Scale RC event hosted at Old Warden Aerodrome.
The SAI KZ IV was a light twin-engined aircraft first built in Denmark in 1944 for use as an air ambulance. It was a conventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane with twin tails, mounted on the ends of the horizontal stabiliser. Power was provided by two engines mounted in nacelles on the wings that also housed the main units of the fixed, tailwheel undercarriage. The cabin could hold two stretchers, two medical attendants, and a flight crew of two.

SAI KZ VII Laerke - Notlandungen!
Der dänische Flugzeugbauer Skandinavisk Aero Industri musste 1954, nachdem insgesamt 186 Flugzeuge die Werkhalle verlassen hatten, seine Fabrikation einstellen und ist heute, ausser in Dänemark, weitgehend in Vergessenheit geraten.
Das Flugzeug KZ VII Lærke wurde in insgesamt 56 Exemplaren gebaut. Neun davon wurden in die Schweiz importiert und hier unter dem Namen Dänischer Storch bekannt, da seine STOL-Eigenschaften denen des berühmten Fieseler Storch sehr ähnlich waren, ja diese teilweise sogar übertrafen.
In diesem Buch wird der Lebenslauf jedes dieser neun Flugzeuge detailliert dargelegt und vor allem auch auf die verschiedenen Notlandungen und Unfallereignisse eingegangen. Zudem wird die spannende, wenn auch relativ kurze, Geschichte des bisher einz...

VINTAGE AEROMODELLING | ZONEN Skandinavisk Aero Industri SAI KZ IV 'Folke Bernadotte' AIR AMBULANCE
Rare to see a scratch built model of an aircraft with such history. This unique RC aeroplane was displayed by members of the Royal Air Force Model Aircraft Association (RAFMAA) at the ModelAir Scale RC event hosted at Old Warden Aerodrome.
The SAI KZ IV was a light twin-engined aircraft first built in Denmark in 1944 for use as an air ambulance. It was a conventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane with twin tails, mounted on the ends of the horizontal stabiliser. Power was provided by two engines mounted in nacelles on the wings that also housed the main units of the fixed, tailwheel undercarriage. The cabin could hold two stretchers, two medical attendants, and a flight crew of two.
A single machine, registered OY-DIZ, was built during the war, with a second aircraft registered OY-DZU being built and flown in 1949. That same year, the OY-DIZ was christened with the name Folke Bernadotte in honour of the Swedish count who had used this very aircraft to make a diplomatic visit to Germany to negotiate for the release of Danish prisoners in German concentration camps near the end of the war. This aircraft is now the "flagship" of the Danmarks Flymuseum collection, having been restored to its original wartime configuration and markings following a career as a utility aircraft in England and a crash in 1979. The second aircraft was actively operational until the mid 1960s.
Folke Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg (2 January 1895 – 17 September 1948) was a Swedish nobleman and diplomat. During World War II, he negotiated the release of about 31,000 prisoners from German concentration camps, including 450 Danish Jews from the Theresienstadt camp. They were released on 14 April 1945. In 1945, he received a German surrender offer from Heinrich Himmler, though the offer was ultimately rejected. After the war, Bernadotte was unanimously chosen to be the United Nations Security Council mediator in the Arab–Israeli conflict of 1947–1948. He was assassinated in Jerusalem in 1948 by the paramilitary Zionist group Lehi while pursuing his official duties.
