Jon Matcho Posted August 24, 2022 Posted August 24, 2022 This is an original, unstarted kit from Quickie Aircraft Corporation. Included are fuselage shells, a smoke-tinted canopy, metal parts, original plans, and misc hardware. The metal parts are the find here, which have been gently bead blasted and oiled to prevent rust. The kit can be used towards building a Q2 or Q200 (same fuselage and most metal parts). Will crate and ship to your location at cost. Asking $3,250 and proceeds benefit the Canard Zone and the Quickie Builders Association. Also listed on Barnstormers.

Jon Matcho Posted August 24, 2022 Author Posted August 24, 2022 The fuselage shells were built by Composite Development Corporation, an official supplier to Quickie Aircraft Corporation. Composite Development Corporation was and is still owned and operated by Fred Jiran, the individual responsible for inspiring Burt Rutan's moldless composite construction techniques. I am not certain where the metal parts were fabricated, but they are all extremely well done. The welds are nearly perfect.

thseng Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 Jon, Where is this currently located? I'm in Warren County, NJ
Jon Matcho Posted September 1, 2022 Author Posted September 1, 2022 Hi Tom, we're neighbors... it's in Bridgewater, NJ (Somerset County NJ). Let me know if you have any questions and I'll be happy to answer. Jon Matcho Builder & Canard Zone Admin Now: Rebuilding Quickie Tri-Q200 N479E Next: Resume building a Cozy Mark IV
thseng Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 Howdy, I can't honestly say I'm too serious, so I won't waste your time asking to come see it. Although it is starting to tempt me. If you could ever use an extra set of hands for some grunt work on one of you projects (lifting, sanding, sweeping floors...) I'd love to help out in exchange for a close look at it. 1

You wouldn't be wasting my time, yours maybe, but not mine. 😉 On 9/1/2022 at 1:44 PM, thseng said: If you could ever use an extra set of hands for some grunt work on one of you projects (lifting, sanding, sweeping floors...) I'd love to help out in exchange for a close look at it. I'd be happy to have you see it, along with the finished-but-not-flying Tri-Q200 I have under repair. Let me know in DM and we can arrange a date. Jon Matcho Builder & Canard Zone Admin Now: Rebuilding Quickie Tri-Q200 N479E Next: Resume building a Cozy Mark IV
