Planegill's challenge
Well kitbag I do not know about giving the right answer but I would say that from the cockpit window arrangement and it being a tri-motor I would say it could be the Bloch MB300.The control yokes are similar to the those on the Bloch 220.

My alternative trimotor was actually the Bloch MB120, but a closer look at the screen arrangement as you suggest show that you are (probably) right- again!.

Sorry, not a Bloch or a Breguet. I have to admit this is probably a bit obscure, as I can't find any evidence that more than the prototype was built. (It doesn't rate a mention in John Stroud's Putnam book.) The photo comes from a company brochure dated 1932.

Not a Couzinet or a DB70. Although the model is not well-known, the company certainly is, producing a wide range of private and up-to-airliner size aircraft before the war.
