Lioré Et Olivier
Lioré-et-Olivier was a French manufacturer of aircraft of the 20th century, founded in 1912 by Fernand Lioré and Henri Olivier. History The ''Société de Constructions Aéronautiques d'hydravions Lioré-et-Olivier'' had three factories, located in Argenteuil, Clichy, Hauts-de-Seine and Rochefort, Charente-Maritime. The company was nationalized in 1936, following which it was merged with Chantiers aéronavals Étienne Romano, Potez, CAMS and SPCA in order to form the Société nationale des constructions aéronautiques du Sud-Est (SNCASE) on 1 February 1937. The factory at Rochefort, however, went into SNCASO.

SNCASE
SNCASE (abbreviated from ''Société nationale des constructions aéronautiques du Sud-Est'') or Sud-Est was a French aircraft manufacturer. The company was formed on February 1, 1937, by the nationalization and merger of Lioré et Olivier, Potez, CAMS, Romano and SPCA. History Following the resolution of the 1936 general strike of French heavy industry, the government of Léon Blum introduced an act to nationalize the French war industry. The act provided for the creation of seven nationalized aeronautical manufacturing companies: six for aircraft (SNCASE, SNCASO, SNCAN, SNCAO, SNCAM, SNCAC), and one for aircraft engines ( SNCM - Lorraine-Dietrich). SNCASE incorporated the facilities of Potez in Berre-l'Étang, CAMS in Vitrolles, Romano in Cannes, SPCA in Marseille and Lioré et Olivier at Argenteuil and Marignane. SNCASE became the largest of the aeronautical ', with of space in six factories and employees. ( of the workforce came from Lioré et Olivier, along with 90% of ...

Lioré Et Olivier LeO H-22
The Lioré et Olivier LeO H-22 was a French amphibious plane, primarily intended for aerial mail transport. Design The LeO H-22 was a flying boat with a three part cantilever A cantilever is a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is supported at only one end. Typically it extends from a flat vertical surface such as a wall, to which it must be firmly attached. Like other structural elements, a cant ... high wing, primarily of both wood and metal construction. The Gnome-Rhône 5Bc 5-cylinder radial engine, driving apusherpropeller, was mounted in a streamlined nacelle, supported on struts, over the wing centre-section. The LeO H-221 three-seat trainer flying boat, derived from the H-22, differed in cockpit arrangement and was powered by a Salmson 9Ab 9-cylinder radial engine, also driving a pusher propeller.

Lioré Et Olivier LeO 21
The Lioré et Olivier LéO 21 was a 1920s French biplane airliner and later military transport based on the earlier LéO 20 night bomber. Development First flown in August 1929 the LéO 21 was a twin-engined biplane airliner with a fixed tailskid landing gear. It retained the basic structure of the LéO 20 night bomber but with a new wider fuselage. It had room for six passengers in a nose cabin and a further 12 passengers in the main cabin with an open cockpit for the pilot. The second LéO 21 was fitted with two 450 hp (336 kW) Renault 12Ja engines and re-designated as a LéO 212. It was converted by the Wagons-Lits company as a ''dining aircraft''. The first LéO 21 became an avion-bar in 1929 and was re-designated LéO 211; it was later modified in 1931 with Renault engines as the LéO 213. One aircraft was produced as the LéO 21S fitted as a 10-stretcher ambulance. The first production LéO 213 was built in 1928 and a total of eleven were built and operated b ...

It won the 1926 French ministry competition for a new night-bomber, and received an order for 50 aircraft. The first were delivered at the end of 1926 and flight tested at Villacoublay in 1927. A total of 311 aircraft were delivered to the French air arm, ending in December 1932. Variants ;LeO 20:twin-engine night bomber with Gnome-Rhône 9Ady engines (320 built) ;LeO 201:re-designation for parachute trainers converted from LeO 20 ;LeO 203:four-engine version with Gnome-Rhône 7Kb engines ;LeO H-20/4:floatplane version of LeO 203 ;LeO 206:production version of LeO 203 with revised nose, ventral "balcony" and tail gun (37 built) ;LeO 207:similar to LeO 206 but with different nose and smaller "balcony" (3 built) ;LeO 208:similar to LeO 20 but with enclosed cabin and Gnome-Rhône 14Mrs engines Operators/Units using t ...

History The ''Société de Constructions Aéronautiques d'hydravions Lioré-et-Olivier'' had three factories, loca .... Development The H-180 first flew in 1928 and was a cantilever high-wing monoplane flying-boat. Powered by a 120 hp (89 kW) Salmson 9Ac engine strut-mounted above the fuselage. It had two side-by-side seats in an open cockpit but the following year it was fitted with an enclosed cockpit and re-designated the LeO H-181. The company intended to build a production batch of ten aircraft but only five H-181s were built. One aircraft was destroyed and the others finding no buyers were used as test aircraft by the company.

Lioré Et Olivier LeO H-15
The Lioré et Olivier Leo H-15 was a French twelve-seat civil flying boat, flown in a national contest in 1926. It did not win but set two load carrying records, one a world record. Design and development In 1926 the French government offered large prizes in a contest to produce new, multi-engined commercial seaplanes. Compared with similar landplane competitions, few manufacturers offered a candidate; at the trials, held in July and August only the Lioré et Olivier LeO H-15 and the SPCA Météore 63 took part. The LeO H-15 was a three-engined biplane with high aspect ratio, thin section wings of unequal span. The shorter span lower wing, with slight dihedral, was built into the hull and the upper wing was mounted on it without stagger or dihedral. The interplane struts were in parallel pairs, two outward leaning and two vertical outboard, and an interconnected central complex which both braced the wings and mounted two of its three Gnome & Rhône 9Ab nine cylinder ra ...

Lioré Et Olivier LeO H-13
The Lioré et Olivier LéO H-13 was a French biplane two-engine flying boat of the 1920s, built in passenger and military variants. Development The LeO H-13 was constructed by Lioré et Olivier in Levallois-Perret factory, for an order of the French Aeronavale airlines. The prototype was flown in July 1922. From 1923 23 passenger aircraft were built LeO H-13A. Next, military variants were developed: reconnaissance-bomber LeO H-13B-3 and trainer LeO H-13E. They differed in fuselage configuration, because the H-13B-3 had an open cockpit for a pilot only behind a lower wing, while the H-13E had an open cockpit for a trainee and instructor seating side-by-side, in front of wings. Both had open machine gun positions in the nose and behind the wings. The H-13E could be also used as a reconnaissance aircraft. From late 1923 20 H-13B-3 were built (nos. 1-20) and 10 H-13E (nos. 21-30). Variants ''Data from:'' - Lioré et Olivier ;LéO H-13 :Prototype ;LeO H-13bis: ;LéO H-13A :Passenger ...

Lioré Et Olivier LeO 12
__NOTOC__ The Lioré et Olivier LeO 12 was a night bomber built in France in 1924.Taylor 1989, p. 578. Design and development The Lioré et Olivier LeO 12 was a large biplane of conventional design, with three-bay equal-span wings and twin engines mounted in nacelles on struts in the interplane gap. The independent main undercarriage units were faired in long, trouser-style spats. Construction throughout was mainly duralumin, skinned in fabric. The pilot's cockpit was open, and there was a second cockpit amidships for a gunner. Operational history When the French Air Force was not interested in the type, three of the four examples built were modified for other roles. One became a 12-seat passenger transport that Lioré et Olivier operated on an airline subsidiary, another had its cockpit and gunner's hatch enclosed and was used by the French air ministry as an experimental testbed, and the third received new engines and better defensive armament and was again demonstrated to t ...

Lioré Et Olivier LeO H-10
The Lioré et Olivier LeO 10 or LeO H-10 was a prototype French Naval reconnaissance aircraft built. Only one example of this two seat, single engine biplane floatplane was built. Development The LeO H-10 (H for ''hydravion'' or waterplane) was a two-seat floatplane designed for reconnaissance work from Naval vessels. It was an unstaggered biplane with unswept wings of constant chord that could be folded for ease of onboard stowage. The interplane strut arrangement was unusual: outboard, there were conventional upright pairs but just inboard of these another pair ran diagonally in Warren girder style, replacing the conventional flying wires. The lower wing folded at a rear hinge on a short stub wing; outboard of the break was a single vertical strut. Central cabane struts provided an upper hinge so the wings, with their trailing edges folded downwards, leaned inwards over the fuselage when stowed. The fuselage of the LeO H.10 was a simple, flat sided structure with a wate ...
