QICKIE KIT DELIVERIES
..... Quickie kit deliveries began
during the first week in July. To date, we have shipped out 48
kits. Sales are approaching the 75 mark.
.....We are equipped to ship out up
to two kits per day, based upon a five day work week. Currently,
we have a two to four week backlog, and expect that to rise as
the rate of sales continues to increase.
.....To expedite delivery, the builder
should call us for serial number assignment prior to sending his
money in, and
then send a cashierâs check.
.....Many of our builders have chosen to
personally pick up their kits. This is the preferred method for us also,
as it assures that the builder obtains his kit without freight damage,
as well as eliminating the shipping time intransit.
.....The price of the Quickie still remains
at $2,900 for the Quickie Aircraft Kit and $1,050 for the Quickie Engine
Package for a total of $,950 complete, less paint and battery.
.....We are often asked how long that price
will remain in effect. While we are doing everything that we can to hold
the price down, we have been absorbing price increases in raw materials
in several areas. Depending on what happens in the next 30 days, we may
be forced to raise the price in October. If this happens, we will first
try to maintain the combined kit price at $3,950 and raise the individual
kit prices.

QUICKIE CONSTRUCTION PLANS AVAILABLE
.....At Oshkosh, we had several sets of Quickie Construction Plans available for visitors to examine. In addition, individuals are welcome to visit our Mojave, California facility and study the plans also.
.....However, many visitors at Oshkosh wanted the opportunity to examine the Quickie Construction Plans at length in the privacy of their own homes. This is understandable and we have decided upon the following arrangement to facillitate this: The Quickie Construction Plans are available for $150. Purchasers of the plans will be entitled to a $150. discount on the purchase price of the Quickie Aircraft Kit. These plane are identical to what an individual would use to build a Quickie from our Quickie Aircraft Kit.
