Trevor Milton purchased the SyberJet program two years ago and now plans to stretch the design of the SJ30-2 and add larger engines, new avionics, and fly-by-wire flight controls to develop the new $14 million SJ36. First flight of the SJ36 is projected in 2027, with FAA certification in 2032.

While the cabin’s width and height remain very similar to the SJ30-2’s, the four-foot stretch will enable seating for nine occupants. The SJ36’s Mmo is projected to be Mach 0.88, with a long-range cruise of Mach 0.74. Maximum altitude is the same as the SJ30-2’s—at FL490—as is the 12-psi cabin pressure differential, providing a sea-level cabin at FL410.
