SFCA Taupin 5/2
The SFCA Taupin was a French tandem-wing aircraft, designed to provide a simple, stable and safe aircraft able to take-off and land in small spaces. Design and development In 1907 Louis Peyret, a friend of Louis Blériot designed the tandem wing Bleriot VI. Alex Manerol, flying the Peyret Tandem won the 1922 Itford glider contest and in 1924 Peyret obtained a patent for it. He continued to build designs of this type as well as more conventional aircraft until his death in 1933, after which his patent rights were purchased by the ''Société Française de Construction Aéronautique'' (SFCA). In 1935 they designed and built the tandem wing Taupin which, apart from a different engine, was very similar to the Peyret VI of 1933. Taupin is the French vernacular name for beetles of the family Elateridae or click-beetles, known for their ability to jump rapidly into the air. The Taupin had rectangular plan wings, the forward one providing 65% of the wing area, both mounted on the cent ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

SFCA Maillet 20
The SFCA Maillet 20 was a French three seat tourer built in 1935. The Armée de l'Air ordered 30 for training and liaison and several were raced. The aircraft was developed through 1935 via cockpit layout and canopy changes to the provision of retracting landing gear. Design and development The ''Société Francaise de Constructions Aéronautiques'' (SFCA) was set up in July 1934 to build light aircraft designed by André Maillet, though Maillet was killed in an aircraft accident on 30 June 1934. The company's first design, the Maillet 20, was a direct development of the earlier Maillet-Nening MN-A, Maillet-Nening or Maillet 01 built by Maillet and Nening, respectively chief pilot and chief engineer at the Roland Garros Aero Club, which undertook its first test flights in December 1933. Both aircraft were three seat, low wing monoplanes powered by Régnier 6 inverted inline engines. The cantilever wing of the Maillet 20 was an all-wood, two spar structure with plywood sk ...

SFCA Lignel 46 Coach
The SFCA Lignel 46 Coach was a French four seat touring aircraft built soon after World War II. It was SFCA's last design, with two prototypes built, flown and raced but engine supply problems prevented production. Design and development The Lignel 46 was the last aircraft produced by Société Française de Construction Aéronautique (SFCA). It was a cantilever low wing monoplane, seating four in two side-by-side rows under a multipart glazed canopy. The two main transparencies opened away from each other on vertical, forward hinges for cabin access. There was a Mathis G8R or Mathis G8 20 inverted V-8 engine, driving an automatic variable pitch propeller in the nose; behind the cabin the fuselage tapered linearly from the full cabin depth. The Lignel 46 was a wooden aircraft and its monocoque fuselage was built using a composite shell composed of perforated cork sheets between inner and outer shaped plywood layers, a method patented by Jean Broudeau and one that SFCA had e ...

SFCA Lignel 20S
The SFCA Lignel 20 was a French, single engine, low wing monoplane, one of a series of this type built by SFCA in the 1930s. It was capable of aerobatics but was primarily a racing aircraft. Design and development Jean Lignel's early designs with SFCA were developments of André Maillet's 1933 low wing Maillet-Nening MN-A. The Lignel 20, his first design under his own name, had a good deal in common with the SFCA Maillet 20 though it was a smaller aircraft seating one or two rather than the Maillet 20's three and had a more powerful engine. It was derived from the design of the SFCA Lignel 10 single seat fighter trainer, which did not fly until February 1938. By then the Lignel 20 had already flown. The Lignel 20 was a low wing cantilever monoplane of entirely wooden construction apart from its engine mounting. The wing had a rectangular centre section with tapered outer panels, the latter with dihedral, which gave the wing an approximately elliptical plan. It was plywood ...
