• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

You are on the right track. Those are Hispano-Suiza engines.

Edit: Couple of hints; it was in service with Air France briefly and went through many modifications.
 
It was the Couzinet 70 Arc en Ciel, after one site refers to as 'horribles modifications' at the behest of Air France.
 
This one was actually the Couzinet 71 N6. Close enough for this mess. Why did they move the oil coolers to the outside? :isadizzy:

Fire away Lefty-
 
You got it - it is the P-3, although by that time (1932) Ireland Aircraft had changed its name to Amphibions Inc. Yuk ! Over to you.:icon29:
 
Henley it is. :icon29: In this case as a test bed for the Rolls-Royce Griffon.
