The SE-210 Caravelle Part 1 Air France After the introduction of the Comet, at the request of the French Comite' du Materiel Civil a number of designs for a medium range advanced airliner were proposed. The successful offering was submitted by SNCASE, which resulted in an order for construction of two prototype aircraft in July of 1953. The significance of this order was to be realized as the twin Avon powered Caravelle was a sensation in service, followed by similar offerings by Douglas, British Aircraft and Tupolev. Following are cards featuring the prototypes, and images of the Caravelle in Air France livery. Many thanks to Kuo Ching Fu for sharing his comprehensive assembly of Air France versions.
