The great Paris-Saigon-Paris air race was not entirely successful - the only three participants, two Goélands and the Breguet 470 Fulgur prototype, all dropped out with technical problems. Flown by Challe and Brill, F-AOMX was painted blue and the sponsor logo of Ric et Rac magazine was red with a white and a black dog, Ric and Rac. Press photo assumed taken at the start of the race at Le Bourget. This photo was added on 13 October 2022, and has since been viewed 537 times. |
