The TEAM MiniMax is a single seat ultralight plane. Wayne Ison designed in the early seventies an
aircraft called the P.D.Q. It weighed only 220 lbs and was actually an ultralight aeroplane, licensed
in the Experimental category. To produce and sell the kits of this aircraft TEAM (Tennessee Engineering
and Manufacturing company) was established. The name Mini-MAX was choosen for the aircraft: Minimum-cost
and a Maximum of pleasure and performance. TEAM Aircraft was later renamed in ISON Aircraft.
The company produced kits for the Hi-Max; Mini-MAX; Z-Max; Eros; V-Max; AirBike and Tandem AirBike.
The Mini-MAX can be ordered by the individual builder in a number of standard models: open or
enclosed cockpit and a range of engines. Over 1000 kits of the MiniMax were sold, first with TEAM Aircraft
later with ISON Aircraft in Bradyville, Tennessee. Today the Mini-Max and Hi-Max kits are built by JDT
Mini-MAX LLC in Nappanee, Indiana, USA. |
