Aircraft Spruce & Specialty began distributing printed copies and CD versions of its new 2011-2012 catalog at AirVenture, featuring legend Burt Rutan on the cover.
There are hundreds of new products in the catalog, said company officials, noting Aircraft Spruce sells more than 60,000 different items relating to aviation.
The 2011-2012 catalog cover features legendary aircraft designer Burt Rutan. In the early 1970’s, Rutan walked into the Aircraft Spruce offices in Fullerton, Calif., and offered Aircraft Spruce the opportunity to be the distributor of materials for a new homebuilt design, the Vari-Eze. Flo and Bob Irwin (wisely) agreed to stock the fiberglass, foam, epoxy and other materials for the aircraft, and Vari-Eze and Long-Eze kits were shipped in great numbers by Aircraft Spruce over the next 10 years. Burt’s career continued to flourish as he designed many amazing aircraft such as the Defiant, Boomerang, Grizzly, Solitaire, Quickie, and Starship, as well as the record breaking Voyager and SpaceShip One.
