Loss of two Potez and one LeO451 during FC

[Larry Hickey]

Hi,

I'm trying to determine the particulars of three French aircraft lost in France during the May-June Campaign. I'm looking for specifics about unit, time, place, crew names, etc. They were:

Potez 63 #286 and #432

Bregeut 631 #9 (Erroneously listed as a LeO451 in post title)

Can anyone help?

Thanx

Thanks Robert,

Can anybody identify the details on the third Potez?

Hi Larry!

AFAIK, #286 was not lost during the campaign and was found at Moissac after the Armistice. First belonged to GAO 515 thne transfered to GAO 545 (date unknown). Subsequent fate unknown.
