Lucien Servanty (5th May 1909 in Paris - 7th October 1973 in Toulouse) was a French aeronautical engineer.
Ingénieur diplômé par l'État (DPE aéronautique 1943[1]), he is also a former student from the Arts et Métiers ParisTech.[2]
He worked for Breguet in 1937, then worked at the SNCASO, where he worked on the Bloch MB.150.[3]
During the world war II, he designed the SO.6000 Triton, France's first jet aircraft. But Lucien Servanty is probably best known today for being the head of design of Concorde supersonic aircraft.[4]
