About the Grumman AA-5 Cheetah

The Grumman AA-5 Cheetah is the economical four-seat sibling of the Tiger — a 150 hp low-wing single that is still notably quick for its power thanks to the slick bonded-aluminium airframe and sliding canopy. The line began as the **AA-5 Traveler** (1972–74) and was refined into the **AA-5A Cheetah** (1976+) — both share the same airframe and are covered here. It is a lower-cost entry into the Grumman four-seat family, ideal for efficient touring and training.
