Caudron C. 154

In 1928, the Caudron company introduced its new intermediate training aircraft, the Caudron C. 154. Developed by Paul Deville, this aircraft was an evolution of the C.59 design, featuring a classic two-bay biplane without wing sweep, built with a wooden frame and fabric covering.

Its powerplant was a 240 hp (180 kW) Lorraine 7M Mizar seven-cylinder air-cooled radial engine. The aircraft was equipped with standard dual controls, making it ideal for pilot instruction.

Production and Operational Service

The prototype (F-AJOT) took to the air in 1928. Following successful trials, another example (F-AJYT) was built, and two more (F-AJMU & F-AJOS) were converted from the earlier C.59 model.

The latter two aircraft were sold to Spain in 1935. By 1938, both C.154s had been captured by Francoist forces during the Spanish Civil War.

The Caudron C.155 Variant

In 1929, a single Caudron C.155 (F-AIYY) sport aircraft was produced by modifying a C.59. This variant utilized the same powerplant as the C.154, showcasing its versatility for civilian and sporting use.
