The seaplane side of Marseille - Marignane airport. A few weeks after this picture was taken, this Vichy French airliner was attacked by RAF Hurricanes off Algiers, presumably by mistake, and four occupants were killed. Perhaps as a result, F-AREJ was in Algeria when it was taken by the Allies and it survived the war to be used by Air France until September 1946. Photo from: ECPAD

The H-246 was a modern flying boat intended for the Mediterranean routes of Air France, and first flown on 30 September 1937. Seven examples built including one for the French navy. A few were confiscated by the Luftwaffe in November 1942 and used in Finland. F-AREJ and F-AREL turned Free French in Algeria, and surived the war to be used by Air France until September 1946.
