I believe you are right.
No 48 was a former GR II/22 aircraft and it seems the type was to be replaced by the Potez 63.11
A number were used by various Ecole de Tir at various airfields (I have both Cazeaux and Istres for example)
Some aircraft had red stripes, some white and others both red and white.
