Interestint. Here is what the restorers at the Fighter Factory have to say about it:



All that's known about the history of the aircraft at the moment is that the a/c was shipped to the French Air Force in April 1939 and issued to GC 11/5 at Reims, thereafter based at Toul during the battle of France and then made its way to Oran, Algeria before the Armistice. From 1940 to '42 the Squadron was engage in sporadic fights with British aircraft such as Sunderlands, Hudsons, Fulmars, Wellingtons over Algeria, Tunisia and Morroco, plus USN Wildcats.
In 1946 until 1949 it was on the strength of the 4th Training Squadron at Cazaux in western France with 22 others. It was saved from scrapping by Michel Pont in the '50's and been in storage in France until the '80's until TFC moved it to Duxford.

It seems that they mixed up the careers of the two n°82.
