Société des Avions Bernard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Société des Avions Bernard was a French aircraft manufacturer of the early 20th century. It was founded in April 1917 by Adolphe Bernard as Etablissements Adolphe Bernard to licence-built SPAD fighters. In 1922, the company was reorganised as Société Industrielle des Métaux et du Bois ("SIMB") with Jean Hubert as head designer. The company was bankrupt in 1927 but Bernard re-formed it a last time under the name Société des Avions Bernard to build a small production run of airliners for CIDNA but was out of business again before the French aviation industry was nationalised in 1935.
