American Champion Aircraft Corporation, located in Rochester, Wisconsin, is a manufacturer of general aviation aircraft. Founded in 1988 on the acquisition of the Citabria, Scout, and Decathlon, it has been producing replacement parts for these aircraft since that time; it has as well been producing new aircraft since 1990.

The Citabria, Decathlon, and Scout designs were obtained from Champion Aircraft Company which had acquired them from Bellanca. While Bellanca was responsible for the design of the Scout, it had in turn acquired the Citabria and Decathlon designs from the Champion Aircraft Corporation.
