Photo Salmson D.6 Cricri F-APSS & F-AQSU?
Hello,
Currently for sale on ebay at : https://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Normand...kAAOSwRSBdxF9l and: https://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Normand...QAAOSw1MNdxGDH is a photo of two Salmson D.6 Cricri F-APSS and I believe F-AQSU. The seller states the photo is taken at Lessay in Normandy. There was a prewar club at Lessay which possessed Cricris among other types. So I'm wondering if anyone can say which unit (E.E.P.?) operated these two machines in 1939/40? Regards, Clint |

Re: Photo Salmson D.6 Cricri F-APSS & F-AQSU?
Hello,
Responding to my own question the site at : http://www.traditions-air.fr/unit/ec...s_pilotage.htm has l'Aéro-Club de Coutances based at Lessay which became a component of E.E.P.39. So unless anyone has any information to the contrary, I'm assuming that E.E.P.39 is a strong candidate for the parent unit of the two Cricri shown. But I would be interested if anyone has any other civil serials for aircraft that served with E.E.P.39 Regards, Clint |
