One of three Flamants that remain in flying condition. Built 1955 and served L'Armée de l'air in the training role. Now operated by Amicale des Avions Anciens d'Albert. A favourite of mine for sure.

Airworthy again few years later and became civilian as F-AZER.

Served at this time with ENOSA 00-316 for navigation training duties.

One of the five Noratlas converted in RNR (Radio/Navigation/Radar) Variant.

Used at this time for initial navigator's training within GE 00-316 (ENOSA). Became civilian as N571P.

Taken on charge on 2 Mar 1960 and converted to RNR version (Radio Navigation Radar, hence the nose radome) in Apr 1970, as one of six aircraft to undergo such conversion. Struck off charge in Jul 1986 and flown to Nancy on 3 Nov 1987 on delivery to the Musée de l'Aéronautique de Nancy. That museum and its collection sustained severe damage during a storm in Dec 1999 and was forced to close in 2000. The Noratlas remained in the closed museum until at least Feb 2004, but by Aug 2004 it had moved on to this museum in Albert. The aircraft is still showing code and badge of Groupement École 316 (GE 316), with which it served from 20 Apr 1970 until 29 Jul 1986. The aircraft's name refers to the Battle of the Viombois farm on 4 Sep 1944.
