The IAR-46 is a very light two-seater airplane for flight schools, training and tourism. Construction uses conventional riveted joints. The seats are arranged side by side, the conventional left seat being the pilot or student pilot seat. The aircraft has a low trapezoidal wing, empennage in "T" configuration, semi-retractable landing gear (mechanical), with the tailwheel connected to the rudder.
The aircraft was certificated under JAR-VLA regulations by the Romanian Civil Aviation Authority in November 1999.[1]
