production of structural aircraft parts principally for the United
States Air Force and other branches of the U.S. armed forces. We also
provide aircraft parts to the commercial sector of the aircraft
industry but we believe that significantly weaker business prospects
exist in this sector. Our strategy for growth includes de-emphasizing
our commercial operations and concentrating on government and military
sales. 98% of our revenues for 2003 and all of our revenues of
2002 were derived from government contract sales.</p>
<p style="font-family:serif;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-size:10pt;  width: 456pt; text-align: left; font-style: normal; line-height: 12pt; padding-top:6pt; padding-left:0pt; padding-right:0pt; padding-bottom: 0pt; margin: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; background-color: #ffffff">We operate as
a "mini-prime" contractor supplying
structural aircraft parts under prime contracts with several branches
of the U.S. Government. In that capacity, we deliver skin panels,
leading edges, flight control surfaces, engine components, wing tips,
cowl doors, nacelle assemblies and inlet assemblies for military
aircraft such as the C-5A "Galaxy" cargo jet,
the T-38 "Talon" jet trainer, the C-130
"Hercules" cargo jet, the A-10
"Thunderbolt" or
"Warthog" attack jet and the E-3
"Sentry" AWACS jet. We also supply commercial
aircraft products including aprons and engine mounts, which attach jet
engine housings to aircraft such as the Lear 60 and Gulfstream 200
(formerly Astra Galaxy) business jets. Our products are sub-assemblies,
a series of parts fixed together to form a larger unit that will
comprise a part of a complex aerodynamic structure. In conjunction with
our assembly operations, we provide engineering, technical and program
management services to our customers.</p>

in the mid to late 1990s, the Clinton Administration closed several
military installations and as a result began outsourcing many
functions, including the assembly of aircraft structural component
parts into subassemblies. Until then, the military had performed this
function internally. The ability to manage the bidding process,
subcontract production of components and assemble components into
subassemblies is our core competency and the government's
decision to outsource this function has resulted in increased business
opportunities for us.</p>

contractor, completing over 1,300 contracts to date. Most members of
our management team have held management positions at large defense
contractors, including Grumman, Lockheed and Fairchild. Our technical
team possesses extensive technical expertise and program management,
and integration capabilities. Our competitive advantage lies in our
ability to offer large contractor capabilities with the flexibility and
responsiveness of a small company, while staying competitive in cost
and delivering superior quality products. While the larger prime
contractors compete for significant modification awards and subcontract
components to other suppliers, they generally do not compete for awards
for smaller modifications or spares and repair parts, even for planes
for which they are the original manufacturer. We also qualify as a
small business because we have less than 1,000 employees, and this
allows us to compete on military awards set aside for companies with
this small business status.</p>

our contracts have been valued below $200,000, we recently competed
for, and were awarded, significantly larger contracts, including an
estimated $61 million award for the T-38
"Talon" jet trainer. We intend to continue to
bid on these larger contracts. We believe that our improved financial
condition as a result of our February 2003 public offering and our
success with the T-38 program will allow us to compete more effectively
for larger awards in the future.</p>

of our business. If we are suspended or debarred from contracting with
the U.S. government, if our reputation or relationship with individual

including health and safety risks, and to require notification or
reporting of the storage, use and release of certain hazardous
substances into the environment. This extensive regulatory framework
imposes significant compliance burdens and risks on us. In addition,
these regulations may impose liability for the cost of removal or
remediation of certain hazardous substances released on or in our
facilities without regard to whether we knew of, or caused, the release
of such substances. Furthermore, we are required to provide a place of
employment that is free from recognized and preventable hazards that
are likely to cause serious physical harm to employees, provide notice
to employees regarding the presence of hazardous chemicals and to train
employees in the use of such substances. Our operations require the use
of a limited amount of chemicals and other materials for painting and
cleaning that are classified under applicable laws as hazardous
chemicals and substances. If we are found not to be in compliance with
any of these rules, regulations or permits, we may be subject to fines,
remediation expenses and the obligation to change our business
practice, any of which could result in substantial costs that would
adversely impact our business operations and financial condition.</p>

subject to regulation by the Federal Aviation Administration under the
provisions of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, as amended. The FAA
prescribes standards and licensing requirements for aircraft and
aircraft components. We are subject to inspections by the FAA and may
be subjected to fines and other penalties (including orders to cease
production) for noncompliance with FAA regulations. Our failure to
comply with applicable regulations could result in the termination of
or our disqualification from some of our contracts, which could have a

recognize revenue from our contracts over the contractual period under
the percentage-of-completion (POC) method of accounting. Under the POC
method of accounting, sales and gross profit are recognized as work is
performed based on the relationship between actual costs incurred and
total estimated costs at the completion of the contract. Recognized
revenues that will not be billed under the terms of the contract until
a later date are recorded as an asset captioned "Costs and
estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted
contracts." Contracts where billings to date have exceeded
recognized revenues are recorded as a liability captioned
"Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on
uncompleted contracts." Changes to the original estimates
may be required during the life of the contract. Estimates are reviewed
monthly and the effect of any change in the estimated gross margin
percentage for a contract is reflected in cost of sales in the period
the change becomes known. The use of the POC method of accounting
involves considerable use of estimates in determining revenues, costs
and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods. As a
result, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for
accounting and taxes) as reported and actual cash received by us during
any reporting period. We continually evaluate all of the issues related
to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the
application of the POC method of accounting, however we cannot assure
you that our estimates will be accurate. If our estimates are not
accurate or a contract is terminated, we will be forced to adjust
revenue in later periods. Furthermore, even if our estimates are
accurate, we may have a shortfall in our cash flow and we may need to
borrow money to pay taxes until the reported earnings materialize to
actual cash receipts.</p>

accurately estimate our backlog because the actual accrual of revenues
on programs included in backlog may never occur or may change.
Cancellations of pending contracts or terminations or reductions of
contracts in progress could have a material adverse effect on our
business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. As

was funded and 55% was unfunded.</p>

CPI Aerostructures, Inc.
200A Executive Drive
Edgewood, New York  11717

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  Reference is made to the Registration Statement on Form S-3
("Registration Statement") filed by CPI Aerostructures, Inc. ("Company") under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act"), with respect to an aggregate of
220,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock").

                  We have examined such documents and considered such legal
matters as we have deemed necessary and relevant as the basis for the opinion
set forth below. With respect to such examination, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us
as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to
us as reproduced or certified copies, and the authenticity of the originals of
those latter documents. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we
have, to the extent deemed appropriate, relied upon certain representations of
certain officers and employees of the Company.

                  Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that the share of
Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of warrants and options, when issued
in accordance with the terms of the governing instruments, will be legally
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

                  In giving this opinion, we have assumed that all certificates
for the Company's shares of Common Stock have been duly executed on behalf of
the Company by the Company's transfer agent and registered by the Company's
registrar, if necessary, and will conform, except as to denominations, to
specimens which we have examined.

                  We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement, to the use of our name as your counsel, and to all
references made to us in the Registration Statement and in the Prospectus
forming a part thereof. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we
are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the
Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

                                                          Very truly yours,
                                                          /s/ Graubard Miller
