The École de l'air et de l'espace is a military school and grande école training line officers in the French Air and Space Force. It is located at Salon-de-Provence Air Base in Salon-de-Provence, France.
In 1922, the École du génie (School of Engineering) of Versailles, was entrusted with the mission to train all officers and aircrew in aeronautics.
The École militaire et d’application de l’Aéronautique (Military and Aeronautical School) was set up in 1925. The officer cadets from the non-commissioned officers' corps and young officers from the École Spéciale Militaire de Saint-Cyr and École Polytechnique attended training at Versailles for two years. For pilots, their training then continued at Avord and then Cazaux, where they trained in aerial combat and bombing.
President Albert Lebrun created the École de l'air et de l'espace by Presidential decree in 1933. The school's first class began training November 4, 1935.
