First flown in August 1951, the Vultur was a naval attack aircraft powered by an Armstrong Siddeley Mamba turboprop engine, plus an auxiliary RR Nene turbojet in the tail. This second prototype had more powerful engines. It did simulated deck trials at RAE Farnborough in 1953. It was later converted to the Br 965 Épaulard anti-submarine warfare aircraft without the Nene, which led to the RR Dart-powered Br 1050 Alizé. Photo by: Cyril Peckham / Hawker Siddeley

In the US National Archives we found some beautiful photos of the 1953 Paris Air Show, of which so far we had none. Here we have the first prototype of the Djinn, first flown on 2 January of that year. The other single-seat prototype, F-WGVD, is preserved here at LBG in the Musée de l'Air. On the far left is a prototype of the Max Holste MH.1521 Broussard, F-WFOB. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

Fifth Noratlas, fourth N.2501. First flown in December 1952 as F-WFRG. Made Latin American tour before this Paris Air Show demo. Converted to N.2503 c/n 01 with R-2800 Double Wasp engines in 1956, and then to N.2508 c/n 01 with auxiliary jet engines in 1957. Apparently used by Kalinga Airlines in India als VT-DKA. Sold to Germany for Transall equipment testing in 1963, code either YA-034 or YA-035. Converted to a standard N.2501D, c/n D001A, s/n 5358. To Greece in 1970 as 53-258. Preserved at Elefsis, the oldest Noratlas around. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

Jet trainer prototype first flown on 29 January 1953. The French air force preferred the Fouga CM.170 Magister. The design was reworked as the four-seat Fleuret II, renamed MS.760 Paris, which was intended as a military liaison aircraft and small business jet. The 1953 Paris Air Show was the first held at Le Bourget. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

Registered in January 1959 and the date range given by the source is 1959-63. The registration was however cancelled, likely as a result of this crash, in May 1961 - but apparently again in 1972. The location is near Djanet in the deep southeast of Algeria, or perhaps at the town's airfield. The aircraft was used for touristic trips by 'pétroliers' (oil workers), and apparently not involved in warfare like F-OBAC. Photo by: Jean-Paul Roelly / ECPAD
