Movie (1923)
Starring:
Marthe Ferrare (Hélène Tarnière)
Jean Murat (Robert Vraie)
Charles Vanel (Gaston Lager)
Mary Harald (Diane de Kenn)
Hélène Tarnière lost her love during an airshow. The rich and wealthy young woman, much courted, isolates herself in her estate until she takes her destiny into her own hands: she's going to be an aviatrix!
Nieuport-Delage Ni-D. 29
Farman F.60 Goliath Bomber
Indifined bomber airframe (F.60 Bn2 or Bn4 ?) of this brand new bomber recently delivered to Régiment de Bombardement, Aéronautique Militaire (Bomber units of the French Army).
Vedette Zodiac Airship (and Farman F.70 in the distance)
(background) Reg. F-AEFD Farman F.70 c/n 4, a 1920s French unequal-span biplane aircraft with a wooden fuselage and a Renault 12Fe piston engine which was designed for four passengers and mail transport.
SPAD S.42
Blériot-SPAD S.42 (usually named only SPAD) was a French biplane trainer aircraft relying on the SPAD S.XIII (the wing was changed for a new upper one slighty swept and -of course- no armement but another station for the student or passenger). Ten airframes built for the French Navy (Aéronautique Navale) and a handfull to the civil market including this F-AEHO (c/n 3) sold in 1927 to a second owner and eventually deregistered in 1934.
Farman F.60 Goliath Airliner
Reg. F-AEEE Farman F.60 Goliath c/n 11. Short-live airframe delivered in summer 1922 which crashed at Valenciennes airshow, North of France, on 15 July 1923.
On its first flight of the day, while performing first flights with a full load of twelve passengers on board, both engines failed, forcing an emergency landing. Seven passengers were slightly injured, but the Goliath was badly damaged and never repaired.
Morane-Saulnier MS.35
Reg. F-ADCY Morane-Saulnier MS.35 (airframe Morane-Saulnier AR built after the Armistice / end of World War One) c/n 38. Manufactured in 1921 and WFU (Withdrawn From Use) in 1931.
Seen again during the panoramic view of the static display.

Unidentified Fighter Aircraft
SPAD XIII or Nieuport-Delage Ni-D. 29 ?
Caudron G.3
Now used by civilian (F-....).
Hanriot HD.14
Seen by continuity error in the middle of the SPAD S.42 shot.
Farman F.50
The Farman F.50 reach the front line in July 1918. In 1920, six flights were still flying this sesquiplane fading in the face of the new F.60 Goliath.
Made for Movie 'SPAD'
On the crash action, the Spad S.42 makes way to an aircraft made up of scattered subassemblies or from a derelic wreck fitted with what seems to be a Breguet Br. 14 main landing gear, itselfusing not the usual wheels but smaller ones.
Perfect verticality seems to be achieved by breaking a rope holding this airframe from the top of a crane.
Unidentified Aircraft
The fire burnt the crashed plane. Unidentified WFU (Withdrawn From Use) airframe used for the filming.
Fifty minutes later, another crash, by night. An old airframe with so many patches it was probably used to learn and train mechanics to repair battle damage. We guess 346 as serial number botom the rudder. Maybe a Dorand AR.2 ?
Two Unidentified Parasol Aircraft
Morane-Saulnier MS.35
Reg. F-ADCN Morane-Saulnier MS.XXXV c/n 45 (type first known as Morane-Saulnier MS.AR; as Morane-Saulnier MS.XXXV (or MS.35 in Roman numerals) for the aircraft built after 1918).
Handley Page W.8b
Reg. G-EAPJ Handley Page W.8b c/n W8/1 delivered on 11 November 1919. In front of windows, a close-up reveals the airline name : Handley Page Transport Ltd but christened name is unclear (still 'Newcastle' or the later 'Duchess of York'?).
Note the less powerful but more economical Rolls-Royce Eagle IX engines (despite not streamlined).
Crash-landed at Poix-de-Picardie, Somme (in Northern France) on 10 July 1923 en route from Croydon to Paris. The crew encountered engine problems and elected to make an emergency landing in an open field. Upon landing, the aircraft rolled for few dozen metres then impacted a drainage ditch, coming to rest broken in two. All nine occupants evacuated safely while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
Various Model
Behind Hélène, maybe a model of the actually brand-new Breguet 19 (prototype).
Dorand AR-1
Reg. F-CAFU Dorand AR-1 c/n 416. Owned by Compagnie Aérienne Française between 1922 and 1924, this plane was sold to an Algerian flying club where it was withdrawn from use in 1931.
Dorand AR-2
Reg. F-CAFW Dorand AR-2. The Dorand AR family was two close types used for reconnaissance duties in 1916-1917 by Aéronautique Militaire (prequel of the French Air Force) and the American Expeditionary Force. Serbia and Greece too used some airframes. These types have been designed by Colonel Dorand and manufactured by several main builder in their factories (Renault, Breguet, Farman ...). Production ranged between 1,400 and 1,800 airframes.
SPAD S.42
Reg. F-AEHO c/n 3 (again). Although Hélène's lover was killed at the controls of this plane, which then burned down, it's the same aircraft which is used for her flight lesson then became her personnal mount.
Diane (Mary Harald), jealous of Hélène's success, tries to sabotage her plane.
Farman F.60 Goliath Airliner
