Latécoère 350

Pioneer and Early Aviation Aircraft

The Latécoère 350 was a trimotor development of the Latécoère 28, a successful single-engined French monoplane of around 1930. The three engines were meant to give the reliability needed for overnight flights, but the aircraft came out very overweight, and only one was built. It shows the manufacturer trying to turn a proven single-engine mailplane into a safer multi-engine airliner. The company's own product list describes it as a ten-passenger airliner.
