	Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
		A company called Quickie Aircraft Corporation sold plans and kits for the original single place Quickie and later sold kits for the two seat version called the Q2.
		Flyins specifically for Quickie aircraft are held in Mattoon, Illinois in June and Ottawa, Kansas in October.
		Quickies do not include a flap control, so an air brake that is nothing more than a flat surface that is extended below the fuselage was introduced to provide much the same over-the-nose visiblity you would get with a typical flap.

		Generally in operation of a private aircraft, the standard of care a pilot must exercise is the same for the operator of a vehicle on the ground, ordinary care.
		This is evidence that he was in control of the aircraft, that the aircraft was capable of being controlled, and that he had sufficient time to plan the aircraft's decent.
		(a) [t]he pilot in command of an aircraft is directly responsible for, and is the final authority as to, the operation of that aircraft[;] (b) [i]n an in- flight emergency requiring immediate action, the pilot in command may deviate from any rule of this part to the extent required to meet that emergency.

		Rutan struck out on his own in June of 1974 with the creation of the Rutan Aircraft Factory in the Mojave Desert, where he designed and developed prototypes for a number of aircraft, mostly homebuilt.
		Over the years Burt Rutan has designed hundreds of aircraft, including the now-famous Voyager, which was piloted by Dick, his brother, and Jeana Yeager in 1986 on a recordbreaking nine-day non-stop flight around the world.
		Some of his other designs include the Raytheon Beechcraft Starship, the Proteus high-altitude long-endurance aircraft, the Ares military jet, the remarkably asymmetrical Boomerang, as well as small, light, general-aviation aircraft such as the VariEze, Long-EZ, Quickie, Quickie 2, and Defiant.

	Quickie history... - Dan Yager's Q-200 blog
		The Quickie is a single-place, single-engined aircraft fitted with a canard approximately equal in area to the main wing. The layout almost qualifies the aircraft as a biplane with tremendous negative stagger between the upper and lower wings.
		The Q-2 was designed around a 64 horsepower engine and called the Q-2. A few years later, after complaints of bug and rain fouling of the Q-2’s GU canard, the Q-200 was introduced. It was equipped with a modified canard with a new LS1 airfoil and powered by an 85 horsepower engine.
		Take-off was made on a jettisonable dolly, and a ventral skid served for landing. The NTSB concluded that the aircraft suffered a fuselage failure that rendered the elevator ineffective.

	CP34-P5
		We recently received a letter from Owen Biliman, reporting on his Quickie accident in which moisture on the airfoil decreased his ability to climb.
		For example, theoretical predictions call for the largest trim change to exist on the well-contoured aircraft that normally have the most extensive laminar flow.
		Concerning your Quickie and others that have near equal-area tandem wings: we have not conducted fixed transition or moisture test on these, but based on your and others experience, it appears that the transition effect on maximum lift is more severe.

	Burt Rutan
		Burt Rutan is a test pilot and aircraft designer whose designs have caught attention for their exceptional performance and novel construction.
		Rigid FAA guidelines that essentially define what an allowable aircraft is have at times hampered his vision, forcing him to retool a particular creation (with resultant loss of performance) simply to pass federal inspection.

		The interesting thing here is that the airplane was owned by the Amana Corporation and I knew both the airplane by the logo on the tail and the pilot/engineer who worked for Amana.
		In addition, I was ferrying a large variety of airplanes for an aircraft sales company and I see entries for trips in two different Bonanzas, Cessna 210, Cessna 310, Cardinal RG, Skymaster, Mooney 201, Mooney 231, Mooney Mite, Mooney Mustang, (the first pressurized general aviation single) three different Barons, a Travelair and a couple homebuilt.
		This was another one of my aircraft dealer "deals." When I got to the airport, the mechanic told me he had been running "Milk Oil" in the engine for the past couple days because all the valves were sticking.
