The Rockwell Commander 112 is an American four-seat single-engined general aviation aircraft designed and built by North American Rockwell (later Rockwell International) starting in 1972. In 1976, they introduced the turbocharged version 112TC and mounting a larger engine with other minor improvements they introduced the Rockwell Commander 114. A total of approximately 1,300 examples of all models were produced before the production line shut down in 1980. In 1981, the type certificate owner was Gulfstream Aerospace, but that company had no interest in single-engine piston production. The rights to the design were sold to Commander Aircraft Company in 1988. They improved the interior and made other upgrades to the Commander 114B series, released in 1992. Approximately 200 examples were produced before they shut down in 2002. Aircraft produced between 2000 and 2002 were named Commander 115 for commercial purposes. Between 2005 and 2012, the Commander Premier Aircraft Corporation (CPAC) was producing spare parts only. An attempt to begin production was made by CPAC who planned a Commander 115 series; however, as of 2016, financial issues had delayed production indefinitely. The total number of all airframes produced under the Commander name was approximately 1490 examples (111:2, 112:803, 114:501+154, 115:30).
