Operated from 1921 by Compagnie des Messageries Aériennes, which merged into Air Union in 1923. Rebuilt with newer engines as an F.63bis, reportedly in 1927.

Operated by Air Union. The Br.280T was a refined development of the Br.26T, an airliner using the wings, tail surfaces and undercarriage of the well-known Br.19 reconnaissance bomber. Two crew and six passengers could normally be carried. F-AIVU crashed at Lympne on 17 January 1931. On the left is the tail of Br.280T c/n 4, see photo 888945. Farman Goliaths F-GEAI and F-ADAY are also seen. Photo from: Bibliothèque nationale de France - Gallica

'Tenth anniversary of the Paris - London line' - all aircraft here operated by Air Union, which called its London service 'The Golden Ray / Le Rayon d'Or'. The Blériot in the centre is flanked by two LéO 21s, F-AIFE and F-AIZO. Air Union preferred the LéO and only two Blériot 165/175 aircraft were built. See photo of Breguet 280T F-AIVU for the other planes. Photo from: Bibliothèque nationale de France - Gallica
