Dewoitte D.524

[Laurelix]

In 1947-1948, Marcel Doret, the dewoitte test pilot wrote 'D.520 had great qualities, but was handicapped by its engine being underpowered, producing just 935hp at most while its airframe was designed for a 1300hp engine'

D.524 was a single prototype D.520 fitted with a 1200hp engine.
