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
AB-180RV – long-range version
AB-180RVR – glider tug
AB-180 Condor – high-altitude version of 1971 with optional
turbocharger (4 built)
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]
