Millet Lagarde ML-10
French light aircraft
The Millet Lagarde ML-10 was a French experimental single-engine light aircraft of the late 1940s. This strange biplane model, which first flew on 28 October 1949, was designed as the first of two examples.
Development
The Millet Lagarde ML-10 was a one-off prototype of an experimental four-seat biplane. The upper wing was fixed to the cabin roof and the lower wing was fixed to the bottom of the cabin. The wings were heavily staggered so that the upper wing's trailing edge and lower wing's leading edge were vertically in line with each other.
The Regnier 180 hp (134 kW) R6B engine was fitted at the rear of the cabin in pusher layout. Twin booms supported the twin fins and a medium/high-set tailplane. The aircraft was fitted with a tricycle undercarriage.
The first prototype, F-WEPK, was completed in 1949 and by 1957 was in storage at Pontoise/Cormeilles-en-Vexin airfield to the west of Paris. A second aircraft, with some modifications, was built by SCAM (Société des Constructions Aéronautiques du Maine) and designated SCAM C.50 Milane II, registered as F-WEAI. No example of this unusual aircraft design survives in existence.

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Millet Lagarde ML-10”, the useful work is to connect “french light aircraft” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Nov 8, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q6859431. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1949 and 1957.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
