Re: French trainer
Hi
The angle of the a/c makes it difficult to be sure if there was a fixed undercarriage but the a/c shows a strong resemblance to the Caudron Simoun as illustrated in a 3 view silhouette in a very old book I have published in 1942 to encourage civilians to recognise WW2 aircraft. Regards Dick

Re: French trainer
Hi,
Not a Simoun, Dick, but not a Nardi too, Christian-J.  The Nardi had no karmann streamlined wing, for instance... Somebody says me it may be a Maillet two seats trainer. After research, I believe he is right. It's a very rare S.F.C.A (société française de construction aéronautique) Maillet 201! http://www.aviafrance.com/1934.htm
