The ref in the aviafrance page takes us to https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k65536869/f21.item.r=peyret.texteImage.zoom. It refers to the aircraft as the Peyret-Nessler avionette and says it dates fron 1927. The photo shows a 3-cylinder radial engine, quite likely a Salmson. However, our Peyret Avionette article dates that aircraft to 1923 and gives significantly different dimensions as well as the inline Sargent motor, so I suspect these are different designs.TSRL (talk) 16:38, 12 September 2018 (UTC) A comparison of the 3-view in the L'ailes article cited here and the photo of the Peyret-Nessler in the 1934 Aeronautique article cited by aviafrance shows that is so.TSRL (talk) 16:45, 12 September 2018 (UTC) The latter is the Peyret-Nessler Libellule; I should nave remembered earlier!TSRL (talk) 16:50, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
