The Quickie Aircraft Corporation was founded in Mojave California in 1978 to market the Quickie homebuilt aircraft (models Quickie Quickie Q2 and Quickie Q200 aircraft). The original single-seater Quickie was designed by Burt Rutan and founders Gene Sheehan and Tom Jewett. The two-seater Q2 and Q200 were designed by Canadian Garry LeGare Jewett and Sheehan. While the Q2 and Q200 were based on the original Quickie the design was completely different.
