Margański & Mysłowski Zakłady Lotnicze (translated as Margański & Mysłowski Aviation Works) is a Polish producer of aircraft and gliders, headquartered in Bielsko-Biała. The company specializes in the design and production of unlimited category aerobatic gliders, powered aircraft, wind turbine systems, and composite material structures.

Originally established in 1986 under the name Zakład Remontów i Produkcji Sprzętu Lotniczego (ZRiPS, Aviation Equipment Repair and Production Works), it was founded by Edward Margański and marked the first privately owned aviation facility in communist Poland following World War II. Initially, the firm focused on glider repairs. During the 1990s, it expanded into aircraft design, developing gliders such as the Swift and MDM models, with Edward Margański serving as the principal designer.

In 2001, the enterprise began developing composite utility and training aircraft, adopting the business name E. Margański i Wspólnicy (E. Margański & Partners) as a limited partnership. The corporate structure was altered in 2005 to a limited liability company, known as Margański and Mysłowski Zakłady Lotnicze Sp. z o.o. Subsequently, in 2011, it transitioned to a Joint-stock company status, updating its official designation to Zakłady Lotnicze Margański & Mysłowski S.A.
