COMING OR GOING? Photographed at the 1961 Paris Air Show by John Blake, this rather unusual vehicle is going actually, or will be when its "pusher" engine starts. An SUC-11-G Supercourlis, it is a larger and more powerful development of the SUC-10 Courlis ("Curlew"), which used to be built by the Societe d'Etudes et de Construction Aero-Navales (S.E.C.A.N.). The Supercourlis is a five-seater, compared with the Courlis' four, and is powered by a 240-h.p. Continental instead of the earlier machine's 175/180-h.p. Mathis
