Mudry et Compagnie Established 1958 by M. Auguste Mudry in the former SAN factory at Bernay, Normandy. Built CAARP-developed CAP 10 two-seat and CAP 20 single-seat aerobatic aircraft. Merged in early 1978 with CAARP. Became known as Avions Mudry et Cie until assets purchased by AeroTech Europe.
A subsidiary of Aeronautical Service, Akrotech Europe has taken over assets of Avions Mudry et Cie, continuing production of the CAP 10B two-seat aerobatic and club trainer (first flown 1968) and CAP 232 single-seat aerobatic competition monoplane (first flown July 1994). Also produces the CAP 222, a version of the US AkroTech Giles G-202 two-seat kit-built aerobatic competition aircraft and trainer.
Mudry was bought out by the group which owns Robin Aircraft and as a result the Barouder became available through Bul Aéro (1998).

Bill Bennett and his partner Bill Moyes worked improvents into the Rogallo tow kites and Moyes towed to 1000 feet in 1967. After the towboat ran into a sand bar one day and the kite gently glided down, they began to deliberatelycut loose and experiment with untethered flight. This led the skiers up mountain sides where they made ski launches, sometimes gliding as far as five miles.
Bennett went to the USA in 1969 and began a tou of exhabitions which included flying over the Golden Gate Bridge to land on Alkatraz, and, on July 4th, circling the Statue of Liberty. American fliers were still using the Lilienthal-type parallel bars and hanging by their armpits but Bennett brought with him a trapeze style control bar and swinging seat.
After the success of his tour he settled down in LA and began to manufacture and promote hang gliders to the growing market in Southern California.
