Epic Obtains Type Inspection Authorization for E1000
Aircraft remains on track for type certification this year.

Bend, Oregon-based Epic Aircraft took a step closer toward certification of its carbon fiber E1000 turboprop single this year, securing type inspection authorization (TIA) from the FAA, the company announced today. Considered a precursor to type certification (TC), TIA clears the way for the final FAA conformity inspections and flight-testing. Epic recently wrapped up more than 4,000 company-conforming flight tests, it added.
