| Air-Tech,
Inc. is owned and operated by Gene "Bever" Borne
and his wife Kim who manages the business. Bever began flying
powered hang gliders in 1977. The aircraft was a Quicksilver
"B" model with an 8 HP Chrysler West Bend engine.
In the early days, participation in the sport was very physical.
All takeoff and landings were done with your own feet or called
foot launching. In simple terms, "you ran like hell to
get the aircraft flying." Only the dedicated survived.
Sales of this type of aircraft were limited to the very healthy
and extremely fast. The advent of the wheels opened the door
a little wider and allowed greater participation. It was then
that Bever decided to make this sport his life. Developing
products that would make the sport safer, easier, simpler
and available to all who care to join...is our task.
Air-Tech, Inc.
is a full-time, full service ultralight aircraft operation.
Our business criteria includes: sales of ultralight aircraft,
certified ultralight flight training, parts inventory and
complete services in all aspects of the sport of ultralight
flying. This includes engine troubleshooting and repair, airframe
alignment, electrical systems, high thrust products, weight
and balance conditions, both static and dynamic, aftermarket
products and enhancements, float flying, flight park / flight
school layout & operations, financing, insurance, legal
paperwork, student training and having fun. Additionally,
we manufacture many accessories for all Quicksilver Aircraft
which we have been supplying to Quicksilver owners worldwide
since 1977.
Service
to our customer is top priority.
We strive to maintain an ample
inventory of stock to keep your ultralight in the air. Most
parts orders are shipped within 24 hours or same day pick
up for local customers.
Free technical support
is always available to those who are in need.
Accessories are
fun and we have 'em (all of 'em).
All accessories we sell are thoroughly
tested and proven. No customer of ours will ever be a test
pilot for anything. All items that we sell are the best money
can buy. Floats, ballistic parachutes, wheel pants, instruments,
high performance propellers, strobe lights and radio systems
are a few examples of what we have to offer. We are Float
Flying Specialists.
Bolt-on - It is our goal to
offer our customers products that require minimal effort to
install. All of our fiberglass products are available as a
bolt-on option. We strive to always provide everything you
need to install any of our products.

Air-Tech, Inc. has been a full time, full service operation and involved
with the Quicksilver line of flying machines since 1977. Since
then we have developed many products that enhance the Quicksilver
Ultralight. To date, we have sold over 400 new ultralight
type aircraft and have signed up over 4000 new students to
the sport. We may not know ALL the
right things to do, but we have a very long list of things
NOT to do. We would hope that our past experience will be
of an asset to you and your ultralight endeavors.
Should you have any situation with any of the
aircraft, engines, associated systems or the business that
you are not 100% sure of, please don't
hesitate to call on us.
Thank
you,
