The Aviones de Colombia AC-05 Pijao is an agricultural aircraft manufactured in Colombia in the 1990s.[1][3] It was developed to fill a gap in the local market after Cessna discontinued production of the Cessna 188 that Aviones de Colombia (Aviodeco for short[4]) had been assembling and supporting.[4] Although the Pijao resembles the Cessna 188 in appearance and role, it was, at least to some degree, a new design.[a] "Pijao" is the name of an indigenous people of Colombia.
