The Chasle YC-10 Migrateur was a single seat sports aircraft built in France in the early 1980s. Only one was built and it flew for less than 30 hours. Design and developmentThe Chasle YC-10 was designed by Yves Chasle and built by Charles Pagès. It was a low wing cantilever monoplane, with straight edged, slightly tapered wings. Originally these were square tipped and without dihedral but after early flight trials streamlined wing tip bodies called salmons and also dihedral were added. It was powered by a {{convert|100|hp|kW|abbr=on|0|order=flip}} Rolls Royce Continental O-200-A air-cooled flat-four engine. Its single seat cockpit was over the wing trailing edge, with the pilot under a prominent two piece perspex canopy. Behind, the round section fuselage tapered rapidly to a broad chord, triangular fin. This carried a deep, tapered rudder and formed a T-tail with its tailplane and elevator mounted on top. Its fixed conventional undercarriage had cantilever legs attached to the wing roots. The Migrateur made its first flight on 29 May 1981. After only 29 hours of flight it crashed at Tarbes and was not repaired. Only the prototype was built.[[3]] Specifications{{Aircraft specs |ref=Gaillard (1981), p.188 |prime units?=met |genhide= |capacity=One |length m=6.20 |length note= |span m=6.26 |span note=({{convert|6.96|m|ftin|abbr=on|0}} after salmons and dihedral added) |height m= |height ft= |height in= |height note= |wing area sqm=6.4 |wing area note=before wing modifications |aspect ratio= |airfoil= |empty weight kg=360 |empty weight note= |gross weight kg=520 |gross weight note= |max takeoff weight kg= |max takeoff weight lb= |max takeoff weight note= |fuel capacity= |more general=
