The Mystère 20 prototype on display in front of some more modern biz-jets, for which this plane blazed the way. The coloured sash on the nose signifies that this plane, with Jacqueline Auriol at the controls, set a female world speed record on June 10, 1965 with an average speed of 859 km/h over 1000 km.
