Photo Comment

The penultimate development of the PA-20 Cigale with a 135 hp Lycoming O-290 engine. Only two Super Cigales were completed, the other was later converted to PA-205L standard with a 150hp O-320 engine. Along with four SAAB 91B Safirs and a Nord NC854 the aircraft was one of six Air France Aero Club aircraft visiting the event from their base at Toussus-le-Noble.
