The SPAD is, of course, a very historic aircraft but it has been stripped and the fabric reapplied. I am not sure that the DH9 has even been touched.

I’m not sure but I think they used the same process for the DH9, they removed the original fabric, glued on a new one and reapplied it.

best regards,

Olivier

Hello Ray,
that’s possible, the planes stayed for quite a long time before being scrapped.

Hi Neil,
“somewhere in France’ in the late 70’s…” brings a lot of good memories…
The Breguet was at Toussus le Noble Airfield, registered F-BASX, it was rotting along the Constellation L749, 6V-AAR, ex. F-BAZL.
I regret that I never took any pictures of those planes, anyway, I still have a propeller tip and an engine data plate of the constellation.
You will find more pictures of these very particular planes on “airliners.net”
Best regards,
Olivier

I’m afraid it does match, I’ve got the the first left hand element, the first element in your photo is blind.
Thanks anyway,
Cheers, Olivier

The Delta Museum at Orly Airport (South of Paris), with Concorde, Mirages, Payen PA-100… but is it enough “vintage” or “light”?

Hello peter,
I was watching the photo of your previous post about your outstanding halifax panel and just noticed that 3 of your boost gauges have the last 3 digits painted in green, which may mean that they are indeed “fluorescent” gauges* although the other digits looks brownish that may be “Fluorescent” paint, It’s easy to check with the references of the instruments or with a UV light as even brownish, the Fluorescent paint glow very well with such light (Have got a rate of climb with brownish Fluorescent paint that let me believe that it was at first a luminous painted instrument although it didn’t glow at night but after the UV test dicovered that it was indeed, fluorescent.)

Best regards,
olivier

* can someone confirm, I have never seen “Luminous” gauges with green digit… :confused:
