This is the second caravelle prototype and made its first flight in April 1956 as F-WHHI. In March 1957 it was re-registered F-BHHI and painted into an Air France colour scheme for promotional purposes. The frame was withdrawn in January 1976 and scrapped in the coming autumn. This nose section is preserved in the museum and has slightly different markings on each side. This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
