Aero Boero AB-180

The Aero Boero AB-180 is an Argentine civil utility aircraft, a substantially improved development of the AB-95. It featured a more powerful engine and incorporated the aerodynamic changes made on the AB-115 and improved on them. The first example flew in 1967 and was in production until 2000.

Variants edit

  • AB-180RV – long-range version
  • AB-180RVR – glider tug
  • AB-180 Condor – high-altitude version of 1971 with optional turbocharger (4 built)
  • AB-180Agagricultural aircraft with 270 L (66 US gal) belly tank for chemicals
    • AB-180SP – 180Ag with an additional set of short wings to make a sesquiplane. In this variant, the agricultural application liquid is carried within the short wings, rather than in a belly tank. The added wings allow a fully loaded stall speed of 56 km/h (35 mph), compared to 89 km/h (55 mph) in the AB-180Ag.[1]
  • AB-180PSA – two-seat primary training aircraft
