The following link provides a full report with lots of photos and information about one of the most famous fighter aircraft of all time and certainly one of the most important to France in WW2. I hope you enjoy and I count on your visit!

Thanks for those excellent pictures of the MS406 and its Swiss sisters.
My neighbour’s father (now in his nineties) flew them during WW2. I found a rather nice painting some years ago and, more recently (at Payerne Air14 in September 2014), I took this shot of D3801 HB-RCF in its new Swiss colours after having pretended to be French for a number of years.

Sadly I suspect that there wouldn’t be a sufficient English language market for what would, inevitably, be a huge and expensive work.

I’d welcome an English language Putnam-style book on the French postwar aircraft.

Thank you for this very interesting link. I always look forward to seeing the “Swiss” MS 406 at Flying Legends as it’s something different, at least here in the UK.
