Aero-Club des Cheminots Aerofer

The Aero-Club des Cheminots Aerofer was a French-built light utility aircraft of the mid-1950s.
Design and development.
The Aerofer was designed and built by members of the "Aero-Club des Cheminots" as a co-operative project. It was a small single-seat low-winged aircraft. The Aerofer had a two-spar wooden wing with fabric covering. The fuselage was of wooden construction with a combination of fabric and plywood covering. The tailwheel undercarriage was fixed. The aircraft was powered by a 50 h.p. Walter Mikron four-cylinder air-cooled engine built by Aster.
Operational history.
The Aerofer was completed in 1954 and was operated until 1964 by the members of the Aero-Club des Cheminots, based at Guyancourt airfield (now closed) to the west of Paris. Its extremely small dimensions meant that it was semi-aerobatic, despite the low-powered engine fitted. Only one example of the design was completed.
By 1965 the aircraft, registered as "F-PERS" with a "Certificat de Navigabilite Restreint d'Aeronef" (CNRA) was owned by the Aero-Club Etienne Boileau and based at Fontenay-Tresigny airfield. It was no longer on the CNRA register by March 1983.
