Discover the people and aircraft behind Toulouse’s pioneering airmail routes
Admission, temporary exhibitions
Explore the early days of civil aviation inside the original buildings of L'Envol des Pionniers in Toulouse-Montaudran. From 1918 to 1933, aircraft departed this site on routes to Africa and South America, with pioneers including Mermoz, Guillaumet, and Saint-Exupery shaping the story. See a full-size replica of the Salmson 2A2 airmail aircraft, and meet costumed interpreters who bring the pilots, mechanics, and passengers of the 1920s into focus.
