Hi John,

Thank you for your analysis, I'm afraid my French is limited to Oui Oui, and (Pepe Le Pew)!

I did notice the Hanriot reference, but could not determine it's relevance. My interest is in the aircraft itself in what is an apparently documented two-place float configuration.

One can easily envision a hearty modernized version with a steel tube fuselage and an M-14.

Thanks again John.
