I like this very much. French aircraft are cool and strange all at the same time.

I like it and it's totaly French, so much that it can't get any more French.

Hello thanks for your interest and comments, this aircraft is a bit of a legend with its particular shape an elegant Twin "revolutionnaire" from the beginning of the second world war, unfortunately only a few were built (about 50). During St Exupery's flight he wrote the book " Fly to Arras" about his adventure , it was very fast and probably the best reconnaissance aircraft of its category (very few were shot down) it was directed by Marcel Dassault , ( which was called Marcel Bloch in 1940) :The man who gave to France in the future : Ouragan ,Mirage, Rafale etc but that's another story😉

thanks for the new pic - it's an improvement over the previous photos. The camo was sprayed free hand?
