The Bernard 18 was a prototype airliner developed in France in the 1920s. One of the two prototypes built was used in an abortive transatlantic crossing attempt and a number of failed attempts on aerial records. The aircraft was originally developed in response to a specification for CIDNA for an eight-seat airliner but the second incarnation of Bernard's aircraft manufacturing company went bankrupt before production could take place.

Made by Société des Avions Bernard.
