I was a racer aircraft (Jules Vedrines won the Gordon Bennett Race in 1912
with that type of aircraft)
It was used at outbreak of war for military service with Escadrille DM 36

un grand merci, Bruno.
I am actually looking at the unit's operations in 1914 and early 1915. Found very interesting things, but just didn't know which aircraft they flew. Neither is their CO familiar. I've tried the 'mémoire des hommes' website, but failed to find his name.

bien à vous
Walter
