Photo Comment

Built in 1953 as V52. Made the last Stampe flight in the Belgian air force in 1978. To OO-BPL. Restored after a fatal crash in 1980, now with open cockpits and painted to resemble a 1939 SV.4B prototype, OO-ATD, which Michel Donnet and Léon Divoy escaped to England with in 1941, although OO-ATD reportedly had a cream colour. Airworthy with the Stampe en Vertongen Museum at Antwerp. V57 in the Brussels Air Museum is similarly painted white as OO-ATD.
