The Latécoère 25 was a French airliner built in 1925 for use on Latécoère’s own airline and its subsidiaries. Essentially a refined version of the Latécoère 17 with an enlarged wingspan it supplanted that type in production and then in service. As Lignes Aériennes Latécoère increasingly shifted its emphasis from carrying passengers to carrying airmail the Latécoère 25 found its definitive role as a mail plane and was widely used in establishing the line’s South American services.
