Quickie Aircraft

The original single-seater Quickie was designed by Burt Rutan and company founders Gene Sheehan and Tom Jewett.

The two-seater Q2 and Q200 were designed by Canadian Garry LeGare, Jewett and Sheehan.

The Quickie's canard wing used a GU25-5(11)8 airfoil, developed by Terence Nonweiler.

It suffered performance degradation at low Reynolds numbers and in rainy conditions.
