March 1, 20197 yr I was aware of the Epic company, but, didn't know about this Epic-1000. On record, the project's motto is "...to be the fastest single-engine civil aircraft at its time of introduction...". It may just do that. Let us see. Nice shots of the plane here. The sleek look/shape resembles the (famous) Swiss Knife PC-12. And, the LongEZ, I now recall from their "Around the World" Tour/News. It looks like such a simple plane, but is a world-beater. Thanks for posting. BTW, Aerobask and VSkylab seem to have good things going for XP, for sure...

Thanks for posting. BTW, Aerobask and VSkylab seem to have good things going for XP, for sure... They seem to be the Carenado/Alabeo of the Xplane11 world, at least for me, for the types of aircraft they churn out that cover certain niches pilots like to explore in their studies, I have two of their payware Microlights (VSkylabs), a gyro, some trikes and a Mini 500 Copter. They all fly well in the flight envelopes you would expect from such light aircraft, at least I see that from my real world experience with aircraft in that weight range, fixed wing and weight shift. Meanwhile Aerobask has modeled two prophetic aircraft, the smooth running Epic and Eclipse. I just added west Texas and southwest Colorado to my photo-scenery coverage, and their aircraft make flights over that beautiful scenery all the more interesting, I find myself remembering things I have only seen in my business travels.
