The company was a Société à responsabilité limitée.
Founded by father and son team Fabien and Jean Claude Léger the company produced plans and materials for two designs, the open cockpit Leger Pataplume 1 and the enclosed cockpit Leger Pataplume 2. Both aircraft emphasized simplicity and ease of construction and were marketed with the French slogan "simplicite, economie, amusement".[2]
By 2013 the company website had been removed and the plans were apparently no longer available.[3]
