The prototype NC.840-01 Chardonneret F-WCDD displayed at the Paris Salon first flew 8.46 from Toussus-le-Noble (photo, note the AAC.1s parked on the field). It was re-registered as F-BCDD on 2.7.47. Its most direct development was the NC.856 Norvigie, an AOP for the Armee de Terre with the 145 hp Regnier 4LO-4 four-cyl inverted in-line engine and variable pitch propeller.

The fuselage of the 144 ft span SNCAC NC211 Cormoran prototype cargo plane at the top of this photograph overshadowed everything else on display. Powered by four Gnome-Rhone 1600 hp 14-cyl 2-row radials, this prototype crashed when the elevators proved inadequate to control the change of trim when the flaps were lowered for landing. All the tail surfaces on the second prototype F-WFKH were enlarged and it flew successfully, but no more were built and the SNCAC went into voluntary liquidation.
The nose of the NC840 Chardonneret shows on the other side of the truck making a still-life exit from the Cormoran. The NC840 with 140 hp 4-cyl inverted in-line Renault 4P-01 engine led to several variants with other engines and the production version became the NC856A Norvigie, 112 examples of which were produced by SNCAN for Armee liaison after the SNCAC close-down.
In the foreground is the prototype Guerchais-Roche T39 three-seat wood and fabric cabin monoplane tourer with a 175 hp 7-cyl Mathis G7R radial engine. It flew the following year as F-WCEG/F-BCEG.
Overhead in the centre is the prototype Guerchais-Roche T107E single seat training glider and below it is F-BBCZ, the prototype T35 two-seater with 140 hp Renault 4Pei from which the T39 was developed.
