French national football team - first flight March 1919
The French national football team played only one match in 1919 (9 March), a friendly one in Brussels against Belgium (for those interested: the score was 2-2).

For this match the French team made its first flight ever. I read that four or five aircraft (Voisin?) were used to transport l'Equipe, journalists and assorted followers.

Who has some more details about the aircraft involved?

Thanks for the info.

Regards,

Leendert
