Summary edit

Description
English: A French SNCASE S.E.2010 Armagnac (F-BAVD) in flight. F-BAVD was the first production series aircraft and flew on 30 December 1950. It went into service with "Transports Aeriens Intercontinentaux" (TAI) on 8 December 1952. A total of four S.E.2010s were delivered to TAI in December 1952, who used them for eight months and then discarded them as unprofitable. The aircraft passed to SAGETA (the Société Auxiliaire de Gérance et d'Exploitation de Transport Aériens) in 1953 who operated seven Armagnacs to ferry cargo, mail and troops from Toulouse, France, to Saigon in French Indochina. They were highly regarded in this role, but French rule in the area was almost over and they were surplus by mid-1954. Most Armagnacs were broken up in 1955.
Deutsch: Eine französische SNCASE S.E.2010 "Armagnac" (F-BAVD) im Flug. Die F-BAVD war das erste Serienflugzeug und flog am 30. Dezember 1950. Sie wurde am 8. Dezember 1952 bei "Transports Aeriens Intercontinentaux" (TAI) in Dienst gestellt. Im Dezember 1952 wurden insgesamt vier SE2010 an TAI ausgeliefert, wo sie acht Monate lang eingesetzt und danach wegen Unrentabilität aus dem Dienst genommen wurden. Das Flugzeug ging 1953 an SAGETA (die Société Auxiliaire de Gérance und die Transportorganisation Aériens), die sieben Armagnacs betrieb, um Fracht, Post und Truppen von Toulouse (Frankreich) nach Saigon in Französisch-Indochina zu bringen. Sie waren in dieser Rolle hoch angesehen, aber die französische Herrschaft in der Region war fast vorbei und sie waren Mitte 1954 überschüssig. Die meisten Armagnacs wurden 1955 verschrottet.
