Jean Mermoz, the Aéropostale and the Laté 300 “Croix du sud”
Jean Mermoz was one of the emblematic pilots of the Compagnie Générale Aéropostale created by a visionary and passionate engineer: Latécoère. Mermoz, a flamboyant and charismatic character, participated in the development of air mail in Africa and then in South America. Saint Exupery’s friend disappeared at sea during a transoceanic crossing on December 7, 1936. After a first departure, he had to return to have a faulty propeller checked. After a second departure, he simply announced on the radio “let’s cut the right rear engine” … the plane and the bodies of the crew were never found.
The Laté 300 Croix du Sud: Built in a single copy, the Laté 300 took off in 1931. The seaplane equipped with 4 engines was able to reach Marseille to Saint Louis of Senegal nonstop, thus beating all records!
