Aircraft Profile: Adam A500

There can be no mistaking the outline of the Adam A500 with its straight low wings with a slight dihedral on the outboard panels. The push-pull engines and the distinctive twin boom tail with swept fins connected by a high-set tailplane.


History:

The aircraft is the first corporate piston twin to be certified in 20 years. The design by Bert Rutan (V-Jet, Defiant and round-the-world Voyager) follows a tradition set by the experimental, WWII German Dornier 335 fighter, and the semi-successful family of Cessna model 336/337 Skymasters but is the first aircraft from the Adam stable which itself was only formed in 1998.
