The Jetcruzer 500 is a refined development of the previous Jetcruzer 450, and will become the standard production model.
The Jetcruzer 450 was certified to FAR Pt 23 standards in June 1994 and two development aircraft were built.
We are very close to launching the Jetcruzer 500 into production-it will start before the end of this year.

  AASI JETCRUZER - Archived 10/2003
JETCRUZER 500.  Pressurized version of the 450.  It is powered by a single PT6A-66A turboprop engine.  Besides the standard corporate configuration, the aircraft was also marketed in cargo, medical evacuation, and military patrol configurations.
This aircraft, named JETCRUZER, could seat five passengers plus the pilot and cruise in excess of 250 knots.  It utilized large, swept, aft-mounted main wings and foreplanes (canards).  All airfoils were constructed of aluminum alloy, while the fuselage was a graphite composite/Nomex honeycomb structure embedded with aluminum mesh.
JETCRUZER 500.  AASI converted the two JETCRUZER 450 preproduction prototypes to the 500 configuration.  The initial flight of the first modified 500 prototype was made in August 1997.  This aircraft was later retired.  Flight testing continued with the second modified 500 prototype.

The JETCRUZER 500 has increased lift in part because the graphite composite fuselage of the JETCRUZER 500 is lighter than a fuselage made of aluminum, used by most of our competitors, and the canard wing design provides an additional lifting surface as compared to conventional aircraft.

The company was founded by Darius Sharifzadeh to develop and manufacture a line of business aircraft of unconventional configuration, the Jetcruzer.
The Jetcruzer program was hampered by a lengthy development and although the prototype version (the 450) had flown as early as 1989, by 2002, AASI still did not have the Jetcruzer in production.
The Jetcruzer assets were put up for auction in November 2003 and sold the following February to Innova Aircraft.

Jetcruzer 500–The Jetcruzer 500 is essentially a pressurized version of AASI’s Jetcruzer 450, which was certified in June 1994.
Certification of the Jetcruzer 500 has been nearly a continuous moving target for the last few years, as delays caused by design problems and funding shortfalls have accumulated.

 Airliners.net: AASI Jetcruzer
The Jetcruzer 500 is based on the smaller, unpressurised Jetcruzer 450.
When FAA Part 23 certification was granted on June 14 1994 the Jetcruzer became the first aircraft in the world to be certificated as spin resistant.
Other notable Jetcruzer 500 design features include its canard configuration (which allows the main wing to be positioned further aft than normal, so the wing spars do not intrude into the cabin), lack of flaps (reducing pilot work load and manufacturing costs and saving weight), and optional EFIS avionics.

 EXPO21XX - AASI
The JETCRUZER does not require additional pilot licensing beyond that required for single piston engine complex aircraft such as the Piper Arrow.
AASI believes its aircraft are designed and engineered with performance enhancements that increase cruising distance and fuel efficiency and thereby lower operating costs as well as maintenance costs when compared with similar single and twin engine aircraft.
The time it took AASI to reach this first phase of certification was streamlined dramatically and first flight of the 450 to receipt of the FAA certification was only one year and 10 months.

The Jetcruzer 500 is a pressurized, 30-foot-long jet that's able to fly at 345 miles per flour at an elevation of 30,000 feet, creating a smoother ride than the non-pressurized, 24-foot-long 450 models, which can only fly at 250 mph and at 12,000 feet.
Analysts were perplexed when AASI scrapped the 450 after spending millions in development and gaining FAA approvals, and their consternation grew when CEO Carl Chen decided last December to merge with the Tiwenz Group, a China-based television, real estate and satellite company.

The already certified but unpressurized and unrepresentative Jetcruzer 450 along with the Jetcruzer 500 have together flown 1,000 hr, and the combined flying hours count toward certification to the 500, Comfort said, because the 500 is being certified as an amendment of the 450's Part 23 certificate.

The Jetcruzer 450 received FAR 23 certification in June 1994, but did not enter production.
AASI has since moved on to the larger, more powerful and pressurized Jetcruzer 500, of which it has constructed two flying prototypes, plus one static- and one pressure-test airframe.
The last major certification tests-of the cabin pressurization system-were completed this past May. AASI says it is one of only two commercial aircraft manufacturers in the world that has completed pressurization tests for a fully-composite fuselage.
