Brochet


Constructions Aéronautiques Maurice Brochet was a French manufacturer of light aircraft established by Maurice Brochet in Neauphle-le-Château in 1947.

Aircraft design and construction

Initially, the firm sold plans for light aircraft of Brochet's own designs to amateur constructors, but gradually undertook more and more aircraft construction, with its final designs not marketed for homebuilding at all. During the early 1950s, Brochet sold some 58 light planes of eight designs to the French government for distribution to the country's aeroclubs.

Aircraft produced

Maurice Brochet built the MB.10 and the MB.20 gliders in the 1930s. The latter became the Avia 50 motorized glider.
He also built three units of the MB.30 monoplane with parasol wing in 1934 before opening the Brochet factory.
The aircraft produced in series by the factory after WW II were the following:
