Re: Potez 631 F1C 11.05.40

Robert,
I have a few Aéronautique navale Pz 631 photographs. They are not the sexiest planes I have ever seen..
Markings were limited to the serial number on the fuselage and an individual code number on the fin. One had a "Donald Duck" personal insignia but that's about all.

On 11 May, none were wearing the small white band added to the roundel late May to avoid confusions and "friendly fires" that cost a few planes and a few lives.

As F1C archives were lost in the débâcle, we have few infos regarding these planes. For instance, no possibility to relate the serial number to the individual code.
