Mauboussin 123

If someone is looking for a project, for which not a lot of money is being asked, how about a Mauboussin 123? The fuselage, elevators, rudder and main undercarriage, which appear to be located in the Creuse département in central France, are being offered for sale in a small ad on the RSA website for only 1500 €.

I have absolutely no interest, financial or otherwise, in this sale. I’m just passing on information in the hope of helping the remains of this old girl to a good home.

The M.123 is a delightful two seat low wing monoplane, produced in France before and (I think) after the last war, which could be said to look a little like the Klemm range of monoplanes. A photo of an M.123 is below.
