WHile at Oshkosh and looking at a P&W turbine, someone told me a group
of people from Lancair had started a new kit aircraft company. Tried
to find their booth but did not. Anybody know the name of this
company, phone # or web site address.

thanks much

I know Lance sold the kit side of the business to a builder, they
could have been thinking of that.

Actually I think you are referring to the new Epic aircraft, very high
performance turbine 6 place. Several ex-Lancair folks are envolved.

They had a press release during Oshkosh. But the program is still very close
to the vest. I suspect you will hear more in the near future.
