Aeronca Sedan

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Aeronca 15AC Sedan is a four-seat, fixed conventional gear light airplane produced by Aeronca Aircraft between 1948 and 1951, the last design the company put into production and the largest it built. Designed for personal use, it also served in utility roles such as bush flying. Its welded steel tube fuselage with fabric covering followed earlier Aeronca practice, but its strut-braced wings were all-metal, unlike its siblings the Champ and Chief. It was powered by a 145 horsepower Continental engine, with Franklin engines also approved, and a certified seaplane version was the S15AC. The last Sedan, and the last Aeronca-built airplane to fly, left the factory on October 23, 1951.
