The Aero Ae-01 was a two-seat biplane - aircraft of Czech manufacturer Aero .

Originally, the company had made replicas of the German Hansa-Brandenburg BI for the Austrian company Phönix-Flugzeugwerke , but began building the slightly modified Ae-01, a training aircraft for the Czechoslovak military, as early as 1919, when it was founded. The original name was Ae-10, referring to the production of the BI at Letov as Š-10.

The Ae-01 was the starting model for later successful designs such as the A.12 or the successor model A.11 and their variants.
