	Encyclopedia: AASI Jetcruzer 500 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Jetcruzer has an unusual configuration, with a single turboprop engine driving a pusher propeller, prominent canards, and fins mounted at the ends of its swept wings.
		The Jetcruzer is noteworthy in being the first aircraft to have achieved a spin resistance certification from the FAA.
		The first of these was the Jetcruzer 500, a slightly stretched version of the 450 powered by a Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-66A and featuring cabin pressurization.

	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.
		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.
		Although the 500 program may not be completely terminated, the aircraft is unlikely to ever be produced. The 500 had a number of strong selling points, including its low purchase price, low operating costs, and impressive fuel consumption. Order rates had slowed considerably, though, since 1998.

		The canard wing on the JETCRUZER 500 is constructed of aircraft aluminum.
		Flaps are not required on the JETCRUZER 500 because of the design and high lift capabilities of the canard and the main wing.
		The engine and propeller of the company's JETCRUZER 500 aircraft are located at the rear of the fuselage, thus providing passengers with a quieter ride, AASI says.

		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.
		Today's Model 500 is based on the earlier design but is stretched to accommodate six passengers, pressurized and powered by an uprated PT6A-66A turboprop driving a Hartzell five-bladed pusher prop (the same engine/spinner/propeller combination found on the recently relaunched Piaggio Avanti).

	Jetcruzer Assets Up For Auction
		With all of the competition and struggling start-up manufacturers in the personal-jet niche, it's hard to imagine there are a lot of people interested in starting up an airplane company -- unless, of course, the price is right.
		There's a flying prototype of the Jetcruzer 500, which would likely fly again, but not in its current condition -- the engine and prop have both been taken out and sent back to their respective manufacturers.
		(The 500 didn't achieve certification.) There are molds and jigs and various other items particular to the aircraft.

		The innovative Jetcruzer 500 is designed to be a high speed low cost single engine corporate turboprop and is the product of California based Advanced Aerodynamics and Structures Inc (AASI).
		The Jetcruzer 500 is based on the smaller, unpressurised Jetcruzer 450.
		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.

		The machine on display is the static test article, greatly gussied and with no PT6 in the engine bay and dummy fiberglass blades fanning out from the spinner.
		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.

		We expect the JETCRUZER 500 will be able to dominate the world market for aircraft selling between $1 million and $2 million.
		There is a void in the marketplace for the JETCRUZER 500, and we believe that if we can maintain its performance and cost, we’ll be able to deliver potentially 100-150 aircraft per year.
