COMPOSITE MATERIALS INTRODUCTORY KIT
CAN I BUILD A COMPOSITE AIRCRAFT?
WILL I ENJOY WORKING WITH GLASS & FOAM?
IS MY WORKMANSHIP ADEQUATE TO BUILD A QUICKIE?
WHAT ARE THE TECHNIQUES USED IN THE QUICKIE CONSTRUCTION?
.....There is now available an introductory kit to answer these questions for you. The kit consists of a book and sample materials, or the book can be purchased separately. The book, âMoldless
Composite Sandwich Homebuilt Aircraft Constructionâ, consists of 26, llxl7 pages (equal to 52 pages) describing how the material is applied, education on the materials, tools required, inspection and repair methods. Sample materials include: epoxy, microspheres, f lox, peel ply, wire for hotwire saw, etc.

.....The kit (book and materials) is $45.50 and is also available from us. California residents please add 6% sales tax.
QUICKIE CONSTRUCTION PLANS
.....At the 1978 Oshkosh, Wisconsin flyin,
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 there.
.....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 plans are identical to what
an individual would use to build a Quickie from our Quickie Aircraft Kit.

QUICKIE POSTER
.....We have available a 15â x 21â full color poster of the Quickie suitable for framing. It is basically a reprint of the centerfold picture from the October, 1978 issue of Sport Aviation magazine. We wish to extend our gratitude to Jack Cox for allowing us to reprint it.
.....The picture was taken the same day that we arrived at Oshkosh, 1978, which was two days before the flyin started. As a result, the grass is still green, and no other aircraft can be seen, even though two days later there were over 1500 aircraft there
.....All of our Quickie Builders will receive
one free sometime in the near future. Additional copies are available to any
interested party for $5.00, including shipping and handling. California residents
please add 6% sales tax.
