Category-leading turboprop manufacturer achieves milestone within five years of certification
Bend, ORE. (Sept. 19, 2025) — Epic Aircraft, designer and manufacturer of the leading single-engine turboprop, today announced the delivery of its 100th certified aircraft. The milestone coincides with the company’s 11th Annual Odyssey Fly-In, a gathering of Epic Aircraft owners, pilots, and partners in Bend, Oregon.

“Achieving this delivery milestone underscores the strength of demand for our aircraft,” said Epic Aircraft CEO Doug King. “We reached our 100th certified aircraft faster than anyone imagined.”

The company delivered its first certified airplane, the E1000, in 2020. In just five years, the company has introduced and certified two next-generation models, the E1000 GX and the E1000 AX. Collectively, the fleet has accrued over 41,000 flight hours.

The 100th airplane, an E1000 AX, features a special commemorative logo on its exterior as well as its interior seats. The aircraft will be based in Texas.

“From our first to our 100th aircraft, each certified Epic reflects the innovation, passion, and commitment of our employees—and the belief of our owner community,” added King. “Each delivery is more than an aircraft. It’s the beginning of a new adventure.”
