Why Sherpa is different
Program Status-Update
02-21-26
Sherpa Aircraft represents the relaunch of a legacy FAA-certified aircraft platform supported by substantial historical engineering development, prototype flight history, and accumulated technical documentation.
Organizational restructuring, data consolidation, and certification planning activities are underway. Advancement pace is currently aligned with available internal resources and will accelerate upon completion of this capital round.
Company Overview
Sherpa Aircraft Group is a U.S. aircraft manufacturer relaunching a proven line of commercial STOL aircraft. With $21M in legacy development and four proof of concept flown, we’re advancing FAA Part 23 certification for multiple utility aircraft variants, including the turbine‑powered 8‑place GT1000, plus a dual‑use variant for USCG, DoD, and special mission operators.
-
Legacy Investment: Between 1987 and 2013, prior investors contributed approximately $21 million to Sherpa Aircraft development.
-
Today’s Equivalent: In current aircraft manufacturing cost terms, this represents an estimated $59 million equivalent investment, already embedded in the program.
-
Duplication Cost: Based on the Lockheed/Embry-Riddle DAPCA IV aerospace development model, duplicating the work already completed would be expected to cost ~$93M in today’s dollars
-
Proven Platform: Multiple Legacy size-variant prototypes have successfully flown, demonstrating unique STOL performance across diverse mission profiles.
-
Market Reach: Multi-size, multi-role aircraft family enables broad marketability — from commercial to humanitarian, government, and defense.
-
Data Room Access: 10-year revenue forecast, detailed market study, business plan, and IP portfolio are available in our secure Data Room (NDA required).
📌 Note: This historical investment is not part of the current raise but demonstrates the significant capital already deployed in developing Sherpa’s platform.
Sherpa is not a concept-stage startup — it's a restart with working aircraft, proven team, and a defined certification path.
Relaunching FAA-certified production in Waco, or central Texas Region.
Our Mission
To deliver the world’s most capable extreme STOL workhorse—engineering safe, efficient, rugged, and reliable—designed for commercial, humanitarian, and defense operators. Sherpa Aircraft opens access to remote and undeveloped frontiers with unmatched performance, offering a proven platform built for mission success and long-term value.
Growth Outlook
Sherpa Aircraft is positioned for significant long-term growth as FAA certification advances and production scales. Management forecasts show expanding EBIT margins as we deliver a family of commercial STOL aircraft into global markets.
Forward-looking statements: These are management estimates only, not guarantees. Actual results may differ materially due to risks and uncertainties.
