These engines were mounted on duralumin bearers that were attached to the nose of the fuselage or to the lower-wing spar by four screw-type bolts that facilitated rapid removal. Each of these engine bearer formed a block that comprised the engine, its immediate accessories,
243:, and the ailerons themselves. An elastic mounting was used for these ailerons and shared their pinion-and-ratchet actuation method with that of the Bréguet 270; whole span ailerons were fitted to both the upper and lower wings. Structurally, it is centred around a single box spar and was directly attached to the base of the fuselage by a pair of wide triangular-shaped vertical

However, all of the tanks could be

The upper wing, while had a uniform profile across the whole span, consisted of two symmetrical sections that joined on top of the fuselage. It was supported by two identical spars composed of steel that were connected via rigid X-shaped
