Companhia Aeronautica Paulista
Brazil
Companhia Aeronautica Paulista formed at Sao Paulo shortly after the Second World War to produce CAP 1 Planalto low-wing advanced trainer, CAP 4 Paulistinha high-wing cabin monoplane, and similar CAP 5 Carioca. The second was the most successful; improved version later built by Nieva. Company came under control of IPT in late 1940s.
Paulic T3B-1 / XT3-B
The four-seat Paulic XT3-B NX21726 was originally built in 1939 as a joint project of John W. Thorp and Rudy Paulic. A side-by-side trainer planned for Boeing School of Aeronautics in Oakland, where both Paulic and Thorp worked.
It was dismantled after several test flights and stored until July 1958, when it was redesigned and rebuilt by Paulic as four-place retractable-gear T-3B-1 with a 190hp Lycoming O-435 engine and re-registered NX6497C.

Paulat Hydro-Aero Monoplane
As Paulat did not succeed in obtaining the required second Hilz engine for his seaplane, he designed the light 1912 Hydro-Aero Monoplane – suited for one Hilz engine – and completed in June 1912 as a landplane. This machine crashed on June 6, 1912.
Paulat was called under arms during the Balkan War (1912-1913), but once returning, decided to end his aeronautical work due to his financial difficulties.
Paulat Hydro-Aero
Ion Paulat built the first Romanian seaplane in 1911. As the Ministry of War provide no assistance to him, Paulat had difficulties obtaining an engine to power the aeroplane. In the end – through friendly help in order to conduct a flight test – he obtained one of the two 55 hp Hilz engines needed. With one engine the machine flew in early November 1911, making a jump of 10 meters at a height of 35 centimetres.
