Unidentified Aircraft
Two high-wing aircrafts and two others with low-wing in front of Aéroparc de Buc (airfield south-west of Paris, France which was closed in 1966).
Too many extras acting as japanese people don't help the recognition of this low-wing aircraft (two- or three-balde propeller ? Two or more windows behind the cockpit).
Stills from a panoramix shot :
Seven aircrafts including two biplanes and one parasol. Mostly hidden by what seems to be a Percival Gull, a low-wing biplane with tandem, open cockpits.
