41-7746 was sold in Italy as I-PALU after the war. The back of the photo says it was taken in Italy, with Casablanca pencilled in. The presence of French aircraft discounts Italy. Both C-47s shown were based at Oran Tafaraoui, which was also a base for A-20s, P-39s and P-38s as seen in the background. A photo of P-40s at Casablanca at this time showed arched hangar roofs, not pitched as in the photo and the proximity of the mountains fits Oran better than Casablanca. However this is not a certainty and open to correction. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

The quality of the image/scan made the serial of this aircraft unreadable. The 540 was one of several slab-sided bombers developed in France before World War II. Called the Flying Coffin by Spanish Republicans, it was relegated to the colonies and second-line duties by the time the war started. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

The XII Fighter Command of the US Twelfth Air Force shared its new base at what was then Es-Sénia airfield with a large collection of former Vichy French aircraft. It was briefly base for the Command as the progress of the war took it on to Tunisia and Italy within a few months. The Potez 63.11 was a reconnaissance version.

Pictured by a member of my family 50 years ago at Oran La Sénia French Air Force air base N° 141. The aircraft has the markings of EC 3/20 "Oranie with Spa 96 insignia on the left side (which is an odd position in comparison of the other aircraft of the squadron). The picture is supposed to be taken in the begining of 1961.
