The IAR-824 (originally known as the ICA IS-24) was a utility aircraft built in Romania in the 1970s.
Developed from the ICA IS-23A, it was a conventional high-wing cantilever monoplane of all-metal construction with fixed tricycle undercarriage and seating for six people within an enclosed cabin. [1]
The first prototype made its maiden flight on 23 May 1971 [2] with the type gaining its type certificate on 13 May 1972. [1] It was exhibited at the 1973 Paris Air Show. Ten examples were built, including the prototype, [3] some of which were fitted with a tailwheel undercarriage for glider towing, [2] with five going to Romania's Aeroclub for training and glider towing.
The aircraft with construction number 5 and registration YR-ISF is on display at the Clinceni Airfield near Bucharest.
