Thank you JCC to remember me that this TV series has some aircrafts.
Dear reader, please note that this page is actually based only on Season One Episode Six "Le complot" and that some others episodes may have others aircraft featuring. Season 6 Episode 5 "La Fille de l'air" may be a good candidate with its subject about an air raid. LVCDC 12:22, 26 July 2015 (MDT)

As guessed, Season 6 Episode 5 "La Fille de l'air" has some aircraft and is now online. There is still 34 episodes to check but most if not all must have no plane inside. LVCDC 23:01, 26 July 2015 (MDT)

Soviet Long-distance Raider

The plane used by the two soviet pilot women is fictional but the director used the Latécoère 17 P built for the TV series La conquête du ciel. This aircraft has a long story told by aeromovies.fr.
Based on the airframe of a Noorduyn UC-64A Norseman (c/n 778, s/n 44-70513) first used by the Royal Norwegian AF as R-AD, he was later registered to a civil Norwegian transport company as LN-TSS in 1959. Later sold to Aero Sahara (F-OBTC) then Europe Air Service (F-BSTC). In 1976, it was modified as Latecoere 17 replica by Jean Salis Collection. Note that the French registry base gives F-AZBD as LATECOERE LATE 17 P Experimental Aircraft. After some use as movie extra or main aircrat and some display on airshows, it suffered a hard landing during the 1990's and was stored and eventually sold in September 2002 (as N4474; since rebuilt as a Noorduyn UC-64A Norseman in USAAF colors and displayed at the Aviadrome museum, Netherlands).
