Aero (3) AT-4
The Aero AT-4 began life in the United States as the Gobosh 700, a Polish-built light sport aircraft imported and sold under that brand before manufacturer Aero rebranded it as the AT-4 for the American market. It descends from the earlier, European-certified Aero AT-3, adapted with simplified systems to meet US light-sport rules. A low-wing, side-by-side two-seater with an all-metal skin, it was built rugged enough for the grass strips common at European flying clubs, and is used mainly for primary flight training and touring rather than aerobatics.
