ABS Aerolight was a French aviation company located in Sérignan-du-Comtat. The firm focused on the design and production of powered parachutes and roadable aircraft, supplying both kits for amateur builders and fully assembled aircraft compliant with the European Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight standards.
Around late 2007, ABS Aerolight discontinued its operations and halted manufacturing. In the mid-2000s, their offerings included the semi-enclosed cockpit powered parachute known as the ABS Aerolight Legacy, alongside two roadable aircraft models: the ABS Aerolight ATE and the still-developing ABS Aerolight Navigathor. Both roadable models incorporated a wedge-shaped boat hull, parachute wing, rugged four-wheeled landing gear suitable for off-road use, and utilized a ducted fan propulsion system in all configurations.
