Not withstanding the available components, is this essentially a plans built only aircraft?
We are now offering the Mini-IMP kit as a series of packages so that the builder can spread out the cost of building the aircraft and only purchase the packages that they desire. Of course, you can still build it “plans only” if you want to. Q: Can you tell me more about the construction process, as well as, let me know how to purchase plans. The Mini-IMP is constructed primarily from sheet aluminum, with non-structural, fiberglass fairings. The construction process is similar to other “plans” built metal airplanes. The individual components are manufactured from sheet metal and other materials, assembled into subassemblies and then joined to make the major assemblies. All of the fastening operations are done with Monel blind rivets and/ or bolts. The fiberglass fairings then attach to the metal understructure with screws, rivets and bolts. Most of the more difficult to manufacture parts are currently available in the packages. The plans are currently available from Mini-IMP Aircraft C
