	Adam A700 AdamJet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Adam A700 AdamJet is a six-seat civil utility aircraft currently under development.
		The aircraft has been developed in parallel with the generally similar Adam A500, although while that aircraft is piston-engined, the A700 is powered by two Williams FJ33 turbofans.
		Unlike the A500, the A700's two jet engines are mounted on the sides of the fuselage and are not truly thrusting directly on the centerline, which makes part of the design advantages of the A500 configuration moot in the jet model.

		Adam, based in Englewood, Colorado, is one of a handful of boutique companies that have made headlines recently with their "think small" approach to air travel.
		Adam Aircraft designs and manufactures a family of innovative general aviation aircraft, including the centerline thrust, twin-engine A500, and the A700 twin-engine AdamJet.
		The A500 seems to be almost as roomy in the rear as the Duke.

	Adam Aircraft prepares to join VLJ onslaught
		Adam Aircraft’s senior managers took time Thursday at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh to update the media on the changes and challenges the company is facing as it prepares its forthcoming A700 jet to join the herd of very light jets (VLJs) taking to the skies in coming months.
		Adam, which also manufacturers the A500 centerline piston twin, says it is hard at work managing the transition from a product development company to one focused mainly on production of new airplanes.
		Regarding progress toward A500 full certification, Adam says all of its facilities have passed the FAA inspection required for the agency to issue a production certificate, and night/IFR certification is "pending." The company expects to receive the production certificate during the third quarter of the year.

		Adams says the popularity of the company's aircraft has led to a growing backlog of orders.
		With back orders for the A500 piling up to about 80, Adams said the timing couldn't be better as more business owners and individuals discover the thrill and convenience of private jet travel.
		Hot on the heels of the A500 is the A700, a larger aircraft powered by jet engines made at Williams International, which has a facility next to Adam's at the Ogden airport.

	Pilot Journal \| Adam A500
		Rick Adam’s A500 is the first corporate piston twin to be certified in 20 years, and in case you hadn’t noticed, it doesn’t employ asymmetric thrust.
		Though Adam’s step-up A700 jet isn’t a push-pull design (engines are mounted Citation-style on opposite sides of the aft fuselage), parts commonality with the A500 is high—the jet uses essentially the same basic fuselage, landing gear, empennage and wing.
		Adam’s A500 backlog at the end of 2005 was 85 airplanes, and at roughly $1 million a copy, that’s a good start.

		Adam is CEO of Adam Aircraft in Englewood, Colo., and his company is busy developing the first new corporate twin since the Aerostar.
		Adam feels Rutan succeeded, though by Rutan standards, the Adam 500 isn’t nearly as radical as some of his previous efforts, but it’s orignal.
		Adam was in the process of building a conforming production model as we went to press, so there was no way of evaluating payload (the airplane I flew had no interior and flight test instrumentation), but the company’s preliminary numbers acknowledge the A500 won’t be a full-seat, full-fuel airplane.
