Formed in 1916 as the Section technique de l’a\u00e9ronautique the STA\u00e9 continued until 1980 when its functions were distributed among other French governmental bodies, including the Service technique des programmes a\u00e9ronautiques (STPA), Service technique des t\u00e9l\u00e9communications et des \u00e9quipements a\u00e9ronautiques (STPA) and the Service central de la production, des prix et de la maintenance (SCPM).

The lack of technical coordination lead to disagreements between the views and desires of command and the capabilities of manufacturers, resulting in development delays and technological dead ends.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4At the instigation of the Deputy Secretary of State for Aeronautics Ren\u00e9 Besnard and Minister of War General Gallieni, the Section technique de l’a\u00e9ronautique was created on 21 February 1916, to coordinate all aspects of the design of new aircraft, led by \u00c9mile Dorand former head of Laboratoire d’a\u00e9ronautique de Chalais-Meudon, ( the contemporary French equivalent of the British Royal Aircraft Factory).The STA\u00e9 moved to Issy-les-Moulineaux, creating the l\u2019\u00c9tablissement d\u2019exp\u00e9riences techniques d\u2019Issy-les-Moulineaux (Issy-les-Moulineaux Technical Experiments Establishment), which included laboratories, wind tunnels and ground testing facilities, placed at the disposal of the Minist\u00e8re de la Guerre (Ministry of War). the new establishment was charged with directing, coordinating and centralising new research and experiments concerning military aviation, in three categories: aviation, armament and R&D (research and development).Dorand led the STA\u00e9 in development of a “standard atmosphere” in order to be able to compare the performance of different aircraft and equipment using a common baseline. The STA\u00e9 was also charged with ensuring that the demands of service chiefs were met, where possible by French industry, correlating the demands of the military with the material possibilities of the moment; determine the performance of equipment presented by manufacturers to improve knowledge of the laws of aeronautics.The first tasks of the STA\u00e9 were: to develop a tractor propeller observation aircraft to allow defence against the Fokker E.III attacking from behind; to introduce a fighter able to fire through the propeller disk and develop twin-engined three-seat observation aircraft. Latterly the STA\u00e9 turned its attention to aircraft engines issuing specifications and pushing for lighter, more powerful and reliable engines. On 6 April 1918, a ministerial decision officially made the STA\u00e9 responsible for aircraft, engines, armament, flight test and research.  The STA\u00e9 wind tunnel under construction at Issy-les-Moulineaux in 1921On 6 June 1919, l’Office de coordination g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de l’a\u00e9ronautique was created and attached to the direction de l’a\u00e9ronautique militaire, bringing together the STA\u00e9, Service des fabrications de l’a\u00e9ronautique (SFA) and Service de la navigation a\u00e9rienne (SNA\u00e9).The STA\u00e9 established regulations for designing aircraft to improve safety, as well as drawing up specifications for a wide range of military aircraft classes, which were assessed in a competitive fashion and production contracts issued accordingly.In 1934, under the minist\u00e8re du g\u00e9n\u00e9ral Victor Denain, the Direction g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de l\u2019a\u00e9ronautique was replaced by the Direction des constructions a\u00e9riennes, in which the STA\u00e9 and the SPA\u00e9 were incorporateded .Until 1939\u20131940, the STA\u00e9 standardised equipment and products for civil and military aviation under the specific regulations of the Ministry of Air, developing and approving standards in consultation with industry and their implementation. After the surrender of France in May 1940, the STA\u00e9 evacuated to Roanne in Vichy France.In 1945, Inspector General Merle, director of the STA\u00e9 created an Etudes Special section (STA\u00e9\/ES) for research and development of missiles; other sections that emerged over the years included Etudes Special sections for helicopters, equipment, engines, armament and more…STA\u00e9 specifications[edit]From 1919 the STA\u00e9 drew up specifications for specific roles in military aviation and assessed designs from industry competitively before production contracts were issued.Directors[edit]\u00c9mile Dorand28 February 1916 – 11 January 1918Albert Caquot12 January 1918 – 1920Georges Fortrant1920-1925Albert Caquot1928-1933…Roger Gu\u00e9nod1974-1980References[edit]Further reading[edit]Aeronautics during the World War, Paris, Maurice de Brunoff,1919The Evolution of French Aircraft During the War, by Colonel Dorand, p.\u00a0111-118Committee for the History of Aeronautics, A half-century of aeronautics in France: introductory work, Department of Armament History, Center for Advanced Studies of Armament,2003Committee for the History of Aeronautics, A half-century of aeronautics in France: The equipment, vol.  2, Department of Armament History of the Center for Advanced Studies of Armament, 2004DGAC Historical Archives, Civil Aviation Directorate,2009 [PDF]Louis Bonte, The History of flight tests, Paris, Editions Larivi\u00e8re, coll.  ”  Docavia  ” ( n o 3)1975Patrick Facon, ”  The Mechanization of War: The rear, factories and schools  ,” The Fana Aviation, n o HS 48,April 2012, p.\u00a0100 ( ISSN 0757-4169 )BNAE – Activity Report 2010, p.\u00a02 [PDF], Bureau of Aeronautics and Space Standards,2010Marie-Catherine Dubreil-Villatoux, [PDF] Archives of the military aeronautics of the First World War, Historical Service of the Defense, 2008 (accessed 15 February 2015 ) p.\u00a032.Albert \u00c9t\u00e9v\u00e9 , Victory rosettes, Robert Laffont, 1970City of Meudon – From Kite to Aviation: Aviation, http:\/\/www.carnetdevol.orgMarie-Catherine Dubreil-Villatoux, Archives of military aircraft of the First World War, [PDF], Defense Historical Service,2008 (accessed 15 February 2015 ) p.\u00a036The Legislative Bulletin Dalloz: laws, decrees, orders, circulars, etc. , Paris, Dalloz, 1919, p.p.\u00a0428-429General Directorate of Armament, Tactical missiles from 1945 to 2000Jean-Marie Potelle, The History of Djinn, Helico-passionArchives of the Military Aeronautics of the First World War, [PDF], Historical Defense Service,2008 (accessed 15 February 2015 ) p.\u00a044General Officers, webgenealogies.com (accessed February 13, 2015 )Georges Bousquet and Gabriel Colin, Roger Guenod (43) A life marked by passion flight test, the Yellow and the Red     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/service-technique-de-laeronautique-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Service Technique de l’A\u00e9ronautique – Wikipedia"}}]}]
