This elegant warbird has been entirely built by a very small team led by Jean Noan after 12 years of effort and 25,000 man hours! Only 2 prototypes aircraft were built in France and flew in April 1940. Both and the whole relevant documentation were destroyed or lost durning the war. It was an extrordinary technical challenge and a great human adventure to built again this aircraft and to made it airworthy 60 years after. Hats off! It was later registered F-AZJY.
