The Found FBA-1 was a 1940s Canadian four-seat cabin monoplane produced by Found Brothers Aviation.
Found Brothers Aviation was formed in 1946 to produce a new design by Captain S.R. Found, the Found FBA-1A. The FBA-1 was a high-wing monoplane powered by a 140 hp (104 kW) de Havilland Gipsy Major engine, designed from its inception to be operated on wheels, tundra tires, skis and on floats.
The aircraft first flew on 13 July 1949. It was later developed into an all-metal four/five seater the Found FBA-2.
