O/T Jump of flea for Potez 63-11

I heard about this recently, very cool to have one flying again. It sounds like it was a very exacting restoration/rebuild. It's a shame there aren't any Gnome-Rhones around to power it.
 
There's no "again" about this one - it's 100% new build! The interesting thing is that the original was pretty poor because of its low-output Gnome et Rhone engines, yet this one has still lower output Pratt and Whitneys! It actually performs reasonably well despite that because of the absence of all the added junk a real warplane would carry.

Nice piece of aeroplane which I'd love to see at La Ferte!
 
He actually spent years, building it, searching for its blueprints, kinda like the ones building those 2 mossies!!!
