Epic Aircraft has launched its second US demo tour, a cross-country showcase of its E1000 GX single-engine turboprop. Beginning on 10 February at Sacramento International airport in California and concluding on 8 November at Scottsdale airport in Arizona, the tour will stop at more than 75 locations across the US.

“Our demo tour provides prospective buyers with the opportunity to experience the exceptional E1000 GX,” remarks Doug King, CEO of Epic Aircraft. “From first-class cockpit and cabin comfort to unparalleled performance and safety features, our aircraft is the turbine category leader: fastest speed and climb, highest service ceiling, greatest seats-full range, greatest full-tanks payload and most fuel-efficient.”

The six-seat E1000 GX is an airborne feat of engineering and design, a pilot's conduit to freedom and unrivalled performance, according to Epic. FIKI-certified and designed for single-pilot operations, the E1000 GX operates with the lowest cost per nautical mile of any turbine aircraft. Its remarkable capabilities include a 333 kts speed and a 1,560 nm range, achievable even when fully loaded with 1,100 pounds of passengers and luggage.

“We posted record sales in Q4 2024, and high demand for our aircraft continues,” continues King. “We're seeing record-low insurance premiums for our owners, an accomplishment attributable to our exemplary safety record, highly regarded flight training programme and underwriter education.”
