AUGUST 8, 2008
Excited
Sherpa followers get the first chance to see Sherpa's turbine powered
K-650T at the 2008 Oshkosh event. Visitors who had the chance to drop
by the Sherpa display were overwhelmed when they viewed the new Sherpa
turbine. Company officials were disappointed that the aircraft could not
be flown in time for the event, but enthusiasm ran high with a wonderful
acceptance of the new model. A series of test flight is scheduled to start
in mid-September; after which buyers with reservation spots will be able
to experience the flying characteristics first hand.
