Odier-Vendome Biplane 1910
![]() Pilot - Antoine Odier
Carrying the names of its designer (Antoine Odier) and ordered by Turcat-Méry race car driver Henri Rougier, this pusher biplane was built by the Vendôme company. It appeared in 1909 and was (under)powered by one of Rougier’s employers 18hp Turcat-Méry engines.
The designer also made the first flight of this, his first aircraft in May 27, 1909, which was also Odier’s first flight, ever.
A later improved tractor biplane followed in 1910, with less arched wings.
