[1] The Bernard 200 T was powered by a 89 kW (120 hp) de Havilland Gipsy III inverted four-cylinder air-cooled piston engine, driving a two-blade propeller, housed under a latched dural cowling which opened like a car bonnet.

Its fixed tailwheel undercarriage had aerodynamically clean, cantilever main legs, each built from a single, tapered girder with fairings added to its leading and trailing edges.

F-AMGS reached Niger but at that point the leader, René Marchessseau, had to return to France for personal reasons and the aircraft followed, flown by his companions.

In 1934 the other 207, F-AMOS, also flew to Africa in the company of two other aircraft from the Aero Club of Oran, travelling some 8,000 km (5,000 mi) to Niger.

This aircraft had previously flown in the Angers 12 hour endurance event held in early July 1933, though it was only placed 12th out of 17 after covering 1,824 km (1,133 mi) at an average speed of 152 km/h (94 mph).
