Hi Ed. This is an interesting one, a Monocoupe 90 ( the 1932 version with narrow tail) previously with the Andalucian Aero Club hence the non-military scheme but Nationalist code "30" for single-engine aircraft like trainers and light aircraft.
The under-wing registration was EC-MAA, visible here.
The white lettering on the tail probably refers to the Flying Club.
Regards
Nick

Hi Nick,

Very interesting. I've noticed a few French flying club aircraft that were apparently stored with military planes at the same hangar (photos from 1940).

Best,
Ed

Hi Ed. Have you seen this site? it doesn't include impressed civilian aircraft as there were many and they usually kept their original markings etc., but seems very comprehensive.
There is a section on colours etc.

Regards
Nick
