Georges Abrial

   

Georges Abrial (1898-?) was an early French aerodynamicist. After graduation from the St Cyr Aeronautical Institute he worked for Levasseur and did some pioneering work into tailless aircraft. He designed several gliders during the 1920s before turning to lecturing the following decade, when he also became influential in the French soaring movement.
