QUICKIE
AND Q2 PLANS Both the Quickie and Q2 Construction Plans are asailahle for purchase separately from the kits. This is so that prospective builders may examine the construction procedures prior to purchasing the kits. It is not recommended to build either the Q2 or Quickie without the kits because of the prefabricated components. The price of the Quickie Construction Plan is $150.00. The engine installation plans are only furnished with Package 2 of the Quickie kit. The price of the Q2 Construction Plans is $150.00 for Section 1 and $40.00 for Section II. Section II covers engine installation details. In either ease, for the Quickie or Q2,. a plans purchaser who later buys the kit receives a credit for the amount of the plans purchased at the time of the kit purchase. |
QUICKIE AND Q2 COMPOSITE MATERIALS INTRODUCTORY PACKAGE This $49.95 package of materials including a booklet has been put together to provide ‘on the job training’ in composite aircraft construction techniques for the prospective builder of a Quickie and/or Q2. Several projects are built using techniques similar to those utilized constructing the aircraft. This allows the prospective builder to hone his skills and determine his level of enthusiasm prior to committing several thousand dollars for the purchase of a kit. The booklet is available separately for $14.50. The package can be sent UPS for speedy delivery (we usually have them in stock), and we take VISA and MasterCard for those of you in a hurry. EXPANDED BUILDER HOT LINE COVERAGE Dave Elliot has recently come onto staff full time. He participated in building N8IQA as well as part of a Quickie, and will he available to assist builders. As a result, we are expanding our Builder Hotline coverage days to include Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons from 1:00-4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00-4:00 p.m. A builder ol either the Quickie or Q2 should have received the unlisted phone number for the QAC Hotline to be used only for builder questions. By funneling these types of calls in on a separate line, we can provide better service and a quicker response time. As before, the line will only be answered when either Gene, Tom, or Dave are available. Builders may try calling at times other than those listed above. We very much appreciate your consideration in making everything run smoothly. QUICKIE/Q2 TRAILERS! At last! One of our new dealers is feverishly working away on a prototype trailer that will handle either the Quickie or the Q2. It will include a simplified mounting/attachment procedure to make the entire job practical for an anemic 102 year old man. He expects to have the prototype at Oshkosh this year. If it proves to be practical, he would offer it in plans/kit form and perhaps ready-built. More details will follow as they become available. |

Since the last newsletter, we have welcomed threc new dealers onhoard. Several more are in the works, and we expect he prime areas to he taken by September. Several key areas, including parts of the midwest, reniain open. A dealer information package is available from Quickie Aircraft |
Corporation. We encourage all prospective builders to visit their local dealer, as our dealers not only stock kits, plans, and some materials, but also have real live Quickies and/or Q2’s under construction for you to examine. To anticipate a question, the dealership does not result in higher prices to the coilsumer, only superior service. As a first time homehuilder. you need and deserve the support of us and our representatives throughout your construction and early flying. |
