Press releaseIssued by AeroMech Inc. and published as received — not written by Airframer’s editors.

AeroMech is proud to have supported Epic Aircraft in certifying one of the fastest ever single engine aircraft, the E1000 for RVSM (Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum).

AeroMech flight test engineers led the RVSM flight testing at Epic headquarters in Bend, OR over a period of two years between 2018 and 2020. The incorporation of RVSM into the production airplanes allows operators to make full use of the aircraft performance and fly at 34,000 ft. The additional flight levels enabled by RVSM certification also result in improved fuel efficiency and increased range.
