I'd never seen those either.... I was convinced the static test speciment had been scrapped a very long time ago.
The entire collection of "Ailes Anciennes Toulouse" has been moved to a different location only very recently... one can merely hope that at least some of the bits and pieces of "0001" have survived...
Maybe VOLUME can tell us more?
