Société Aérienne Bordelaise


The Société Aérienne Bordelaise was an aircraft manufacturing company based in Bordeaux, France. The predecessor company, Société de Travaux Dyle et Bacalan had been founded in 1879.

History

The Société Aérienne Bordelaise was established in 1930 when the Société de Travaux Dyle et Bacalan, which had specialized mainly in railways, public works and shipbuilding, decided to establish a branch dedicated to aeronautical construction. Most of the aircraft built by SAB remained in the project stage and no production followed.
In 1935 the Société Aérienne Bordelaise, like most private French aviation industries was nationalized, following which in 1936 it became part of the Société nationale des constructions aéronautiques du sud-ouest.
