The Aero A.30 was a biplane light bomber and reconnaissance aircraft. It was built in Czechoslovakia in the late 1920s. It originated as an attempt by Aero to improve the performance of the Aero A.11, but soon evolved into quite a different aircraft, larger and more powerful than its predecessor.[1] The aircraft is readily distinguished from other related types, through the difference in spans between its wings – the upper set being of much greater span than the lower.
