This is a press release that Express Aircraft Company is sending out as an announcement at Oshkosh. We're expanding our customer base, and this announcement should be of particular interest to builders in the East: Wicks Aircraft Supply, a trusted name in the aviation industry for 30 years, is expanding their strong customer support into aircraft construction with their new Builder Education Center. Realizing that prospective builders can use a partner in the selection, construction and flight training process, Wicks has teamed up with three aircraft kit manufacturers with proven designs. Anchoring the product line with a true four-place, long distance cruiser is the Express 2000FT. The Express carries 140 gallons of fuel in addition to 935 pounds of payload. Using a Continental FADEC engine and Aero Composites prop it cruises at a solid 190 knots. With an FAA approved syllabus, the Wicks Builder Education Center takes the customer through a six-week construction process that can take the lone builder years to accomplish. The Wicks Builder Education Center is located in the St. Louis region at Shafer Metro-East Airport (3K6) and augments the Express Aircraft Builder Assist facility in Olympia, WA. In addition to the Express 2000FT Wicks also provides builder education programs for the Titan Tornado, and T-51 as well as the Czech-built Carbon Sting and Star Sport.
