Den Siebel Si 204 var et lite tomotors transport- og treningsfly utviklet under andre verdenskrig. Den var basert på Fh 104 Hallore. Opprinnelig designet som svar på en utviklingsordre fra luftfartsdepartementet for et lite sivilt transportfly i 1938, ble det til slutt produsert for Luftwaffe.

General Characteristics

The Aero C-3A was the Czechoslovak post-war production variant of the German Siebel Si 204D, a small, twin-engined transport and instrument trainer aircraft. Production took place at the Aero and ČKD-Praga plants during the German occupation and continued after the liberation of Czechoslovakia. The C-3A variant was specifically used by the Czechoslovak Air Force for training pilots on multi-engine aircraft, earning the nickname “Sibly.”
