Avions Mauboussin was a French aircraft manufacturer of the 1930s.
Pierre Mauboussin had been in partnership with Louis Peyret from 1928 and had jointly designed three types of light sporting aircraft. Mauboussin left the firm in 1933 after the death of Peyret and established his own aircraft design company. The company was acquired by Fouga in 1936, but continued to produce further designs until 1948.
Nine M.120 Corsaire series aircraft survived in French aircraft collections and museums during 2005. A few examples are still airworthy.
