Family registry data shows up to 2 passengers, so expect a two-seater.

  • The catalog lists a Lycoming O-235-C2C engine for the AA-1A and AA-1B Trainer models.
  • Engine mounts: Lord part J6113-5, 8 per aircraft, with PMA parts listed for this installation.

Manufacturer history

The catalog notes that the AA-1, AA-1A, AA-1B and AA-5 were formerly built by American Aviation. The builder later appears as Gulfstream American Corp., formerly Grumman American Aviation, which was sold to American Jet Industries in mid-1978. Registry data names American General as the manufacturer.

The registry covers the whole AA-1 family, with maxima across variants: up to 380 nm range, 108 kt cruise, 14000 ft service ceiling, 700 kg maximum takeoff weight and 2 passengers. These are upper bounds for the family. Do not read them as this variant's performance.
