I believe it is many years since this aircraft was on public display; it is seen here in the store at Dugny. On 14-15 October 1927 two men, Dieudonné Costes and Joseph Le Brix, used it to fly across the South Atlantic Ocean, from Saint-Louis, Senegal, to Port Natal, Brazil. This was the first non-stop South Atlantic crossing by an aeroplane. The 2,100-mile (3,380 kilometre) flight took just over 18 hours. The aircraft had been named "Nungesser-Coli" in honour of the two pilots who disappeared while attempting to cross the Atlantic Ocean in Levasseur PL.8 "Oiseau Blanc" in May 1927.

Two Portugese Harvards preserved in front of the Museu das Forças Armadas located in the Forteleza Sao Miguel in central Luanda.

Named after two airmen who disappeared in a transatlantic flight in May 1927.
