The Boisavia B-80 Chablis was French light sport aircraft of the 1950s.
The Chablis was designed by Lucien Tieles and constructed by Avions Boisavia in 1950. It was a two-seat ultra-light monoplane with a high parasol wing supported by struts. The seats were arranged in tandem fashion. It was of extremely simple all-wood design with fabric covering and was intended to be fitted with a variety of engines in the 50-80 h.p. range.[1]
Two Chablis were built by Boisavia, the first making its first flight on 16 July 1950.[2] These were powered by a 65 hp (48kW) Continental A65 flat four-cylinder air-cooled engine. The Chablis was intended for construction by amateur builders using kits supplied by the firm. In the event, no further examples were completed and further development was abandoned.[3]
