what is it?
The Bréguet 390T, 392T and 393T were a family of French propeller-driven sesquiplane airliners designed and produced by the French aircraft manufacturer Bréguet. First flown in February 1931, the Bréguet 390T family attracted the attention of the recently formed flag carrier Air France, which acquired a total of six 393Ts along with the sole 392T prototype. These were used on the Toulouse–Casablanca and the Natal–Buenos Aires routes, as well as various short-haul routes between Paris and nearby European destinations in the latter portion of their careers.
