SARL Léger Aviation was a French aircraft manufacturer located in Archiac, focusing on wooden ultralight aircraft intended for amateur builders. The firm supplied both construction plans and raw materials for individuals assembling aircraft at home.

Established as a Société à responsabilité limitée, SARL Léger Aviation was created by the father-son duo Fabien and Jean Claude Léger. Their product range featured two models: the open cockpit Leger Pataplume 1 and the enclosed cockpit Leger Pataplume 2. These aircraft were developed with an emphasis on ease of construction, affordability, and pilot enjoyment, encapsulated by the French motto "simplicite, economie, amusement".

By 2013, the company’s website was no longer active, and the aircraft plans ceased to be offered.
