The Super Frelon F-ZWWE used in the speed trial

The speed trial was conducted by renown Sud Aviation test pilot Jean Boulet who has featured previously on this thread

Jean Boulet at the helm of the Super Frelon on 23rd July 1963 when the world speed record was achieved

The Frelon's sponsons were removed and its undercarriage replaced by stumps for the record-breaking flight.
