EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the SNCAN NC.854 F-BFIB (msn 13) of Aer-Club Air France, a vintage aircraft that underwent an intriguing transformation. Originally built as an NC.853 in 1949, this aircraft was initially equipped with the troublesome 80 hp Minie 4DC30 engine, which caused numerous issues. After years of storage, it was converted to NC.854 standard in July 1954, receiving a new 65 hp Continental A65 engine. The aircraft's sleek design and distinctive markings are evident in this image, taken circa 1955. Sadly, the F-BFIB met its end in March 1958, marking the end of its aviation journey. This photograph is a testament to the history of flight and the evolution of aircraft technology, offering a glimpse into the past of aeronautical transportation.
