The paper presents the design activity of the Institute of Aviation that was founded in 1926 to develop, and test aeronautical engineering products. The survey comprises : a report from 1930, the main milestones, such as experimental helicopter, a family of trainers (Bies, Iskra, and Iryda), research capabilities, and the current task of the Institute of Aviation, i.e. to create a scientific basis for aeronautical engineering tailored to the market economy. As a result, the military industrial complex is adopted for civil applications, thus creating a general aviation program. The primary objective of the paper is to show: where the Polish aviation is now, the trends in aviation development in other countries (AGATE - program), and the ways Poland can make impact on world aviation.
