Sud Aviation

Industrials

Societe nationale de constructions aeronautiques Sud Aviation was a French state-owned aircraft manufacturer, created by the merger of SNCASE and SNCASO on 1 March 1957. Both predecessor companies had been formed from smaller privately owned corporations that were nationalized into six regional design and manufacturing pools just before the Second World War. It was based in Toulouse, and its factory at Blagnac Airport near Toulouse housed the final assembly line for the Caravelle airliner. The company was merged into Aerospatiale in 1970.
