Norman Aviation Mini Explorer

[Trackwelder 12]

Picked up a copy of Leisure Aviation, it is their annual edition of all light planes, and I came across the Norman Aviation Mini Explorer. They are crediting it to Hubert deChevigny as a minature version of his explorer, I Know that that was a Dean Wilson design but am really interested in finding out if there are plans available for it. 2 seater, 2 couches and kitchen area weighing 286 kilos with a MTOW of 560 I did an internet search using the website they listed first naaah it couldn't be that easy the last information I can find about it is from Canadian Registeryand they had an Avid clone called the Nordic VI that was registered in 2007. The Canadians seem to get all of the cool airplanes. Has anyone heard of it or seen one in person? On a side note they finally have Brett McKinney as owner of Airdale with the Flyer given mention. I still wish someone would bring back the catalina, but I think those rights weresold elsewhere and then never persued.
