By Charles Voisin as the female pilot trained, existed Raymonde de Laroche on 8 March 1910 as a first woman of the world the pilot examination of the Aéro club de France. Still in the same year it participated as an only woman in the flight week of Heliopolis and nevertheless reached the 6. Place. With the Flugmeetin in St. Petersburg became it fourth. During the large flight weeks of the Champagne in Reims it had an accident heavily, when it air-eddy-dragged in another airplane turned out.

In the year 1912 it was again very heavily hurt in the car accident, in which one of the brothers Voisin died. Nevertheless it won 1913 the woman cup of the Aéro club de France as well as the Coupe Femina.
