By the looks of the oil coming out of the breather on the right side engine cowling as well as the exhaust residue along the sides of the fuselage, the Majort has been running the engine pretty hard, and maybe doing some inverted flying as well. I wonder if it was in combat.

Talbot had 5 aerial kills and was said to enjoy low level straffing and dive bombing so I'd go with combat for the hard usage :!:
