The first Super Frelon, built at La Courneuve but first flown on 7 December 1962 from Marignane and I think the photo was taken there. In July 1963 this prototype set three speed records for helicopters, fitted with a large aerodynamic fairing under the tailboom. In 1974 it was retired to the Musée de l'Air at Le Bourget.

This early Puma was later converted to SA.330J standard. The helicopter appears to be wearing the Sud-Aviation logo on the forward fuselage. Aérospatiale, created in 1970, initially used a similar logo but with elements of the Nord-Aviation logo. Photo from: US Air Force Systems Command / Wright State University

Built in 1958 and was operated by Sud Aviation out of Toulouse at this time. Apparently suffered an accident in April 1980 and thereafter no history found.

The one and only Caravelle VII was demonstrated to Australian domestic airlines in April 1962. Both TAA and Ansett-ANA opted for the Boeing 727-100. The VII was powered by General Electric CJ-805 aft-fan engines as fitted to the Convair 990. It was intended as a prototype for the longer Caravelle 10A for TWA, which was to be built by Douglas. Douglas decided to develop its own DC-9 and TWA went with it instead. F-BJAO was converted to a standard Caravelle III and delivered to Air France as F-BLKF.
