The Caudron Type C was a single seat French biplane, intended for military evaluation.
The earlier Types B-D in this sequence began as equal span biplanes, then were modified into sesquiplanes.
Each of these lower members, which supported the aircraft on the ground as skids, carried twin, rubber sprung landing wheels.
Behind the wing the upper and lower members converged to the rear; the drag on the lower members reduced the landing run to 20 m (66 ft) There were three vertical cross braces on each girder but the only lateral inter-girder cross-members were near the tail, though there was wire bracing.
The broad chord, roughly rectangular, warping tailplane was mounted a little below the upper girder member.
