Modeste-Abel Latouche
Modeste-Abel Latouche was a French aero inventor, on whom we have a growing degree of information.
He was a pharmacist, according to our data, and a balloonist, located sometimes at Vire, Calvados, Normandy while conducting his affaires "chez Suvigny", 9, rue du Petit-Lion-Saint-Sulpice, Paris, Seine, France (in 1845).[1]
We have him addressed at 23, rue du Cherche-Midi, Paris, Seine, France (circa 1854-1855).[2]
He worked primarily on airships, called "aéronef" at the time. His "aéronef, train mobile dit aéronef Latouche" has led us to tentative use of the tech area infrastructure, in that we may be dealing with a system of joined airships. This person had 1 publications and 5 patents in this database.
