It's interesting to see that the unit marking on this nice MS.733 Alcyon is often misread as "105", and is often thought to be a serial. It carries the markings it wore when it served with Aeronautique Navale with serial No 74. It became F-BKOI on 10 Oct 1962, and has kept that registration ever since, with various owners. Initially flew in yellow colours, but by 1999 it had been painted in the markings seen here. On 21 Sep 2012 it was registered to Association Train Classique, and based at Roanne.
