Light Miniature Aircraft
Kit Planes, Plans & Manuals
Please read the information below
carefully,
before placing your orders.
Plans & Manuals
General:
All of the Light
Miniature Aircraft Manuals, for all our planes, are approximately 200 pages.
Each manual has step-by-step instructions, for each section of the plane, as
well as figures, drawings and full size templates to guide the builder through
the building process. Each manual also comes with a complete set of full size
plans for the fuselage and tail feathers as well as full size templates for the
wing ribs, landing gear and items such as the wind shield. Our builders simply
lay out the drawings and start building. No need for time consuming re-scaling
(like most kit planes) or expensive machinery.
All of our wooden planes are constructed in the same manner so identifying, or
relating, to other builders, about building issues, is quite easy. The
"LMA Builders Group" at over 500 members, is
always available to lend informative feed back and, combined with our web site,
makes building our planes an interactive experience. Light Miniature Aircraft
has strived, for nearly 25 years now, to bond builder to builder and builder to
us. This positive attitude, and nearly 24 hour support, has greatly improved
morale & confidence amongst even the most novice of our builders. You’re never
alone, or far from help, when building one of our planes.
Plans and manuals are still available for our metal planes, however, due to
rising aluminum costs and availability problems, beyond our control, we no
longer supply kits for the air frames of the metal planes. Some partial kits,
for items like the controls or landing gear are still available.

Kit Planes
General:
We’re pleased to announce that Light Miniature
Aircraft and Wicks Aircraft Supply have joined forces to bring you
the best quality products for the most reasonable prices available. Our kits
will be supplied as a raw stock/milled stock kit, direct from Wicks, and will
contain the finest of materials for constructing one of our planes. Although
Wicks currently supplies about 95% of the items needed, to build one of our
planes, there are some items they don’t supply. These items are listed in the
“Exclusions” section following the price sheet along with a suppliers name for
those items.
You may notice that the Kit Prices are virtually identical. Don’t be
misled, by this, as the designs are quite different, though not apparent in raw
stock form. We went to great lengths to achieve this to simplify production, of
these kits, and thus reduce production costs. These savings are then passed
along to you. We, most certainly, don’t think you'll mind saving a few bucks!
What's included in a Partial Kit? We thought you might ask that. If you
will kindly open your manual you will notice it is broken into sections (i.e.
fuselage, wing, etc). In these sections there are parts/materials pages which
have the raw stock, milled stock, etc. listed. The items, on those pages, are
the items in the partial kits for that particular section, of the plane.
However, as we said before, there are some exclusions (see
Exclusions).
Note: Regardless of the plane, you're building, all items may be ordered individually, from Wicks, giving you the flexibility to get what you need, when you need it. Please be sure to mention Light Miniature Aircraft when ordering your materials.

Please Read Carefully
Due to the constant price changes of raw
materials it is virtually impossible to
keep these prices posted accurately. The links below will redirect you to
the page on the Wicks website for each of the corresponding planes. The most
accurate way to pin point your costs is to email or fax the pages, contained
within your manual, to Wicks Aircraft and they will quote you your costs.
Please note that it is not necessary for you to order ALL the materials
at
once and a large portion of the materials needed for building your plane are
available on a local basis, this saves money on shipping, etc. This procedure
can be used with all of our wooden planes and most of the parts for our
metal planes (i.e. controls, general hardware, etc).
