Czech Sport Aircraft

Czech Sport Aircraft, a.s. is a Czech light aircraft manufacturer based in Kunovice that succeeded the bankrupt Czech Aircraft Works and entered the market in 2009. It builds light-sport aircraft, chiefly the SportCruiser, sold in some markets as the PS-28 Cruiser, and in 2011 its range also included the amphibious Mermaid and the streamlined Parrot. In January 2010 the SportCruiser was added to the Piper Aircraft line as the PiperSport under a licensing agreement, which Piper ended in January 2011. Earlier, as Czech Aircraft Works, it built the Zenith STOL CH701 under licence from Zenair until that agreement ended in December 2006. By June 2017 the company had produced its 600th aircraft. This make is the Czech Sport Aircraft brand, covering the aircraft that carry its CSA, CZAW and PS model names.
