Not from Dewoitine. However, there is no need to leave the country just because it is not one of their products.

Have we gone back to Bernard by chance? How about the Bernard 74?

We have indeed gone back to Société des Avions Bernard skytrain10. Development of the Bernard 74 fighter started in 1930. The new aircraft was based on the racing S-72 and S-73 models and was powered by Gnome and Rhone 7K 280 hp engine. The test flight of the prototype, S-74C-1, took place in February 1931. Later test flights at Villacoublay resulted on an order from the French government for 25 S-74 fighters to be equipped with the more powerful Gnome and Rhone 7K 360 hp engine. A prototype for this revised version, S-74 no. 02, flew on 21 October 1931. Unfortunately the company went bankrupt (for the second time) and the rest of the aircraft were not produced.



Over to you.

No, there is no connection with Air America (that I am aware of) and it is not a Helio product.

RETDPI's challenge.
That Volume seems very popular. As it is open house and not wishing to steal RETDPI's thunder as I am positive he will agree with deisel addict's findings I will submit the next challenge:-
