New name of Societe des Avions Dewoitine, conferred
after Dewoitine's return to France from Switzerland.
Dewoitine fighters were eventually responsibility of SNCAM.
Meanwhile, D.37 series of parasol-wing monoplane fighters
was developed by Liore et Olivier, though name
Dewoitine was sustained in fighter field primarily by the
low-wing D.500 series, many of which were built by Liore
et Olivier. Societe Aeronautique Frangaise gained greatest
publicity with record-breaking D.332 Emeraude, first
flown 1933, and with D.338 as used extensively by Air
France in late 1930s. This latter aircraft was, perhaps, the
finest 3-engined airliner in service before Second World
War, and continued in use after fall of France.
