The Bloch MB-300 Pacifique (a.k.a. La Grosse Julie Big Julie) was a French all-metal three-engine monoplane that was developed to enter service as an Air France airliner. Though a single prototype was produced by Société des Avions Marcel Bloch in 1935 it was eventually rejected by Air France circa 1938.

I thought the Bloch MB.300 Pacifique was a pre-war trimotor airline prototype which was the competitor for the Dewoitine D.338. The MB.300 used the same wing as the MB.4
