Flight to Arras[edit]

The Flight to Arras article claims the aircraft involved was a Potez 637, while this article claims it was a Bloch MB.170. Which is correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.216.189.74 (talk) 15:23, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

GR II/33 had started conversion from the Potez to the Bloch 174 on 10 May, and had completed conversion by 18 June, so it is possible that Saint-Exupéry flew both types in the early days of the invasion. The article on the book says it was based on several missions, so both articles could be correct.Nigel Ish (talk) 16:06, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
