Oops just found out about the Fiat APR.2 it could do 400ish kmph and the tail matches Herge's in flight drawing perfectly - but it only has one headlight and different engines - so is it another mix he was so fond of. I will continue with the S.84 as I've started on making drawings. But will add the APR.2 as well.

Of course it could be a SAFCA knock off of the two. Looking at the other aircraft they produced it looks like Legrand was a bit free in stealing designs.
