Concern about single source and article rating

As a fan of this period of aviation, this interesting-looking aircraft certainly deserves more in-depth research to improve its article, which at present is really a "stub" or "start." It relies on a single source that the citations are directed to, which is itself a Wikipedia page and not a second source.

It's unlikely that any more sources will be found, there might be some coverage by Flight magazine but its archive is behind a paywall now. The French article is unreferenced (sometimes alternative sources are listed in the parent language articles) The citation link is just to an article on the magazine series itself ( Illustrated Encyclopedia of Aircraft), it's common to link publications in citations if they have a Wikipedia article. The page number 638 is given. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 08:54, 28 September 2023 (UTC) reply
There's some coverage in an article in the February 2008 issue of the French magazine Le Fana de l'Aviation (about a page), and coverage in the book (Les avions Bernard) listed as a reference but not cited. There should also be coverage in Flight (the issues in question are probably available on the Internet Archive) and other contemporary magazines/journals. However - agree that the article is still a little light for a B. Nigel Ish ( talk) 12:43, 28 September 2023 (UTC) reply
I've knocked it down a tad to C class, there are quite a few aircraft articles in the wrong class, all assessed by the same user. I commented on a few that were obviously wrong, to no avail! Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 17:41, 28 September 2023 (UTC) reply
