Wreckage of Capt William Lancaster's Avro Avian IVM (previously VH-UQG) which crashed on 12 April 1933. The body of William Lancaster was discovered 12 February 1962 by a patrol of the Légion étrangère (French Foreign Legion) when they found the crash site. The wreck was located about 45 miles west of Lancaster's planned route from Reggane to Gao, French Sudan. His intended route was to follow a road across the desert. The estimated time of arrival at Gao was 0230. The wreck was recovered by the Wylton Dickson Expedition.

41-7746 was sold in Italy as I-PALU after the war. The back of the photo says it was taken in Italy, with Casablanca pencilled in. The presence of French aircraft discounts Italy. Both C-47s shown were based at Oran Tafaraoui, which was also a base for A-20s, P-39s and P-38s as seen in the background. A photo of P-40s at Casablanca at this time showed arched hangar roofs, not pitched as in the photo and the proximity of the mountains fits Oran better than Casablanca. However this is not a certainty and open to correction. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

The quality of the image/scan made the serial of this aircraft unreadable. The 540 was one of several slab-sided bombers developed in France before World War II. Called the Flying Coffin by Spanish Republicans, it was relegated to the colonies and second-line duties by the time the war started. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

The XII Fighter Command of the US Twelfth Air Force shared its new base at what was then Es-Sénia airfield with a large collection of former Vichy French aircraft. It was briefly base for the Command as the progress of the war took it on to Tunisia and Italy within a few months. The Potez 63.11 was a reconnaissance version.
