10/31/2007. Remarks by Gilles
Auliard: "Most of you already have heard about the D.H.4
project that has been brewing there since 2002. This aircraft was
originally built by Atlantic Aircraft (c/n DA-2) and was last flown in
1956.
Fitted with a new fuselage and a converted 60 hp Ford engine, it is
finished in the colours of Robertson Aircraft Compnay and carries the US Contract Air
Mail markings C.A.M. 2. The first flight after restoration took place on
September 29, last year and after all winter to fix the pesky
problem inherent to an extinct type of airplane, it is back in the air.
I was lucky enough to do two long air-to-air sessions, as well as
staged ground, and ground-to-air shots, the total package!" View also photo 8536.
