Aeroprakt A-28 Victor
The Aeroprakt A-28 Victor was a twin-engine light aircraft designed as a practical touring and utility machine. It used a high wing and two pusher propellers, a configuration that gives pilots a clear forward view and protects the propellers from debris on rough strips. The project remained far less common than Aeroprakt’s successful single-engine A-22 family. Its rarity makes it an unusual example of a lightweight twin developed outside the mainstream certified-aircraft industry.

The A-28 Victor never matched the commercial success of Aeroprakt's single-engine A-22, a reminder of how rare twin-engine light-sport designs remain.
