Gaston Caudron (actually Alphonse) (Favières, January 18, 1882 - December 10, 1915) and René Caudron (Favières, July 1, 1884 - September 27, 1959) were French aviation pioneers. They founded the world's first flying school and built the world's first seaplane. The Caudron brothers were farmers with a passion for aviation, which was gaining popularity at the time. In the spring of 1908 they built a glider with which they made the first flights over the fields of a farm (Ferme de Romiotte) a few kilometers from Le Crotoy. The device was pulled up by a horse. In this way they completed six flights over a distance between 800 and 1200 m. René controlled the glider. They founded the Aéroplanes Caudron Frères company in 1909 and from 1910 the Société des avions Caudron, originally installed in Le Crotoy and later in Rue. They acquired a special place in aviation history. In 1910 they founded the world's first flying school, recruiting future pilots, and in August 1910 René obtained his pilot's license in Le Touquet. In March 1911, Gaston received his civil aviation license. In 1912, the brothers built the world's first seaplane. In 1913 they expanded the school with a military aviation department. In 1913, Gaston started the first pilot school in China, and he was the first pilot to fly over the Forbidden City, on the occasion of the delivery of twelve reconnaissance aircraft type Caudron G.3 (see photo), ordered by the Chinese. The Caudron brothers developed several reconnaissance aircraft for the French army. Under pressure from the invasion of the German troops in 1914, they moved their factories to Issy-les-Moulineaux and Lyon. Gaston Caudron died on December 10, 1915 on board a Caudron R-4 at Lyon-Bron airport. In 1920, the French pilot Adrienne Bolland was employed as a test pilot. She made world news when she flew over the Andes in a Caudron G.3 in 1921. In 1933, the Caudron factories, which had run into financial difficulties, were bought by the Renault company. From then on the company was called Société anonyme des avions Caudron. The designers now concentrated on building light aircraft. In 1933 there was a collaboration with Marcel Berthet, famous cyclist and professional from 1907-1923, in which an aerodynamic streamline was built around the racing bicycle. Materials were spruce wood, aluminum and cloth. Marcel drove this at 49.992 km/h. However, the record was not recognized by the International Cycling Union (UCI) because of the different bicycle model with which it was set. Hélène Boucher, who set several world records with Caudron aircraft, was also under contract with Renault to promote one of its car models, the Renault Viva Grand Sport. She crashed in a Caudron Rafale on November 30, 1934 in Guyancourt.
