The Bernard 60 T and 61 T were closely similar, three engine, twelve seat passenger transports designed in France between 1929 and 1933.

Despite the rapid build, the accommodation was heated, ventilated and sound-proofed; entry was via a port side door which included the rearmost window.

[1] The empennage of the Bernard 60 was conventional with a rounded fin and rudder and a tailplane with a swept leading edge mounted on top of the fuselage.

So in October 1930 Bernard proposed to install three seven cylinder, 224 kW (300 hp) Gnome-Rhône 7Kdrs Titan-Major engines.

The wing was unchanged, weights up by about 100 kg (220 lb) and maximum speed and ceiling increased by 27 km/h (17 mph) and 2,500 m (8,200 ft) respectively.

In May 1934 Georges Barbot tested the performance of the 61 T, now technically dated and always with poor handling characteristics and not of interest to the recently formed Air-France.
