A Potez 62 because it's beautiful, it looks a bit like a flying fish.
This lovely aircraft, first flown in 1935, was operated by Air France during the 1930s. Military variants were also produced for troop parachuting.

You might laugh at the bedrooms that are bathtubs. Or the doors installed laying down rather than vertical.

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
I'm so tired of measles.

I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.

Show what measles looks like.
