The Aerolite light aircraft series was constructed and marketed in the early 1990s by Australian Aviation Works of Donvale, VIC, the prototype being placed on display at the Australian International Airshow at Avalon.
The Acro Sport was designed by the late Mr Paul Poberezny, President of the Experimental Aircraft Association of America, specifically for construction by persons with no experience in building aircraft.
In 1985 the Aircraft Spruce and Specialty Company sponsored the design and construction of a light aircraft, the goal being to develop a new homebuilt aircraft that could be easily constructed from plans and / or building instructions and using commonly available materials.
