adams a500 plane

An article in the Ogden Standard-Examiner in Utah brough Adam Aircraft to my attention. They are a small company that will start delivering their carbon-fiber A500 twin-engine airplanes later this year. The carbon fiber A500 has a very distinctive look and is one of the few planes using a carbon-fiber composite structure.  The A500 costs around $1 million and there are already about 80 back orders. One interesting design feature of the A500 is that the engines are both one the center line rather than on each wing. Up next for Adam is the A700, a VLJ ( very light jet) aimed at the busines travel market. The A700 should be certified for sale by the end of next year and there are already over 140 orders from individuals and charter busineses. The A700 will be a competitor to the Cessna Mustang  and the Eclispe 500.
