Henri Ziegler (18 November, 1906 in Limoges – 24 July, 1998, in Paris) was one of the founders of Airbus and its first president. A Polytechnic engineer and graduate of “Sup'Aero” (the national aerospace engineering school) as well as a French air force officer and test pilot, he was a founding father of Airbus Industrie (along with Roger Beteille and Felix Kracht) and became its first CEO. He was the driving force behind the development of the Airbus A300B, the original aircraft that started Airbus on its road to global success by obtaining French government backing for the programme in 1969. Following his appointment as assistant director of the Centre d'Essais en Vol (government flight test centre) in 1938, he fought for the French Resistance during the Second World War. In 1944 he was made commander of the Free French air forces in London, going on to become chief of staff of the French Forces of the Interior under General Koenig.
