GT 500

The GT-500 development program was started with the goal of producing the best performing Quicksilver ever. Quicksilver’s aim was to design an aircraft that would transcend the category of ultralight & provide general aviation with the entry level aircraft it desperately needed. The focus was on more speed, better aerodynamics, and a greater range.

Tandem arrangement provides outstanding visibility for the pilot since the wing is behind him, the instrument panel is low and there is no body obstructing his view to one side.

When you add all this to the superb handling characteristics that have long been the Quicksilver’s aircraft hallmark, you have an aircraft that delivers pleasure as well as performance.

Build up your GT500 by selecting one of the three variants.

fly longer distances with increased fuel capacity and improve your looks and comfort with a fully enclosed cockpit, more sail colors, a full flight deck and special edition seats.

You can also enhance the performance of your GT 500 by upgrading the propeller and engine!
