This is a replica of the original Breguet XIX modified by CASA and named it later as CASA Breguet XIX SB ''Cuatro Vientos''. The original left the Spanish City of Seville on July 10-11 in 1933 for doing the longest flight over the Atlantic Ocean in that time. It flew over Madeira, Puerto Rico and landed safely at Camagüey (Cuba) after 40 hours flying and 6.000Km over the Ocean. This model was renamed SB (Super Bidón) because they put an extra capacity fuel tank. Days later the aircraft disappeared on a flight to Mexico.
