Beware of pencil written identifications on the back of photographs, they may be placed decades later, be inaccurate or just not true.
I hope you will be able to win more points in this Breguet Challenge, so we see more rare pictures.
Cheers

It's great to see you again at the challenge!
It feels you haven't been here for years! 
But what are you referring to with?
You surely wouldn't find me on a dawn patrol at 6:00 am on a sunday morning!

Thank you both for your kind words.
That makes sweating over the mouse trigger while learning how to bid on fotografs such as this more rewarding.
Originally I thought that we needed a book on the lesser known Albatosse, but later discovered that there was already a DATA FILA SPECIAL or MINI D.F. covering the same. I still have some fotos of lesser known and rare planes that might make a small volume. One major problem is finding enough accurate information, but as Aquilius has shown there is some out there.
Thanks again for the kind words and encouragement to continue.
Best Wishes, Jay
P.S. I think that I am just better at guessing and identifying "Winged Wrecks" than whole aircraft (Comparison of the two different scoreboards should back this up!).
Yes Aquilius I try to get on this board atleast once a year, kind of like Kees's frequenting the BCFC.
