F-ANEJ Breguet 393T
(c/n 03)
The Breguet 393T
was a sort of three engined sesquiplane (only the French could come up
with
something
like that). It was a larger development of the
earlier 39T and 392T, both of which
were built in prototype form
only. Six 393Ts were built and destined for Air
Union. By the time
they were delivered, however, Air Union
had become part of the newly nationalized airline Air
France, and all six appeared in the two
tone blue and silver livery adopted by the line at that time.
They were operated on a wide variety of Air France
services to both Africa and within South
America. Just prior to WW
II, however, F-ANEJ was working the London-Paris route.
