At Cannes Airport in 1954, La Môme Moineau sits inside her Beech 18 aircraft, a gift from her husband, the Puerto Rican shipbuilding millionaire Mr. Benítez-Rexach.

Dressed in a captain's uniform with an elaborately embroidered cap, she smiles out the sunlit window, holding a glass of white wine in one hand and a large white feather in the other.
