Histoiry of IPS'Aircraft
IPS'Aircraft was created in 2015 by IPSA students. Originally, their project was to design an electric racing plane from scratch, from plans to manufacturing. This project, which was too large, was quickly discarded to make way for the amateur construction of a ULM biplane, the Sherwood Ranger ST. Unfortunately, shortly after receiving the first kit, the Covid-19 pandemic stopped work for 2 years. Construction really began in November 2021 with the assembly of the fuselage. Since then, we have been meeting every Thursday to share good times around the construction of the ULM.
