JEAN MERMOZ (1901-1936)
Jean Mermoz had a passion for flying : he joined the French Air Force in 1920, qualified as a pilot in 1921 and commissioned to Syria ; he was mentioned in dispatches for both his courage and the way he mastered flying.
He was demobilized in 1924, joined the Latécoère firm, was appointed as an airline pilot on Toulouse - Barcelona - Alicante regular flights.
In 1925 he was appointed on the Casablanca-Dakar flight.
On May 10th 1927 he inaugurated the flight Toulouse - Saint Louis of Senegal, non-stop.
In the course of the same year he was assigned to ensure the Buenos Aires - Rio de Janeiro regular flights by the French Airmail company.
On May 12th 1930, on board the hydroplane "Latécoère 28" christened "Le Comte de la Vaulx" he managed to fly from Toulouse to Natal in Brazil in twenty hours or so for the first time, with 130 kgs of mail on board.
From that moment pilots were to fly the 13,400 kms between Toulouse and Santiago in Chile in slightly under 109 hours, including stops amounting to 20 hours altogether.
On January 16th 1933 he flew from Dakar to Natal at an average speed of 227 kph.
After about ten flights over the South Atlantic, Mermoz took off from Dakar on December 17th 1936 on board "La Croix du Sud". A few hours later a radio message was picked up : " Am switching right rear engine off". Nothing whatsoever was ever retrieved that may have been part of "La Croix du Sud".
