The Macchi M.20 was a single-engined training's biplane produced by Aeronautica Macchi italian factory between the late of 10's and early 20's of the XX century.

It was made in small series and intended for civil aviation market. The plane was developed in the same time with the single-seat Macchi M.16, created for recreational aviation.

Development
At the end of the first world war, the engineer Alessandro Tonini started the development of two new models to offer to the civil aviation market because the military production needs ceased.

The first light plane was named M.16 and was created for recreational aviation. The second, the M.20, had dual controls and was usable to pilot's training. Both had a common origin and had the same frame : single-engine with biplane veiling and fixed landing gear.
