The record-breaking journey, piloted by Gordon “Gordy” Bryan with CEO Trevor Milton on board, outperformed the 339.4 mph benchmark previously held by the Embraer Phenom 300 since 2013. While the flight data awaits official validation from the National Aeronautic Association and the Federation Aeronautique Internationale, the process is expected to span 90 days.

SyberJet SJ30-2 Shatters Transcontinental Speed Record
A SyberJet SJ30-2 light jet completed a nonstop flight from Jacksonville to San Diego in four hours and seven minutes, clocking an average speed of 505.3 mph. The flight effectively dismantled a 13-year-old transcontinental record by a 48% margin, pending formal certification from aviation authorities.
Following the flight, Milton credited the performance to the dedicated support of his mechanics and staff. The SJ30-2 serves as the current flagship for the Chandler-based manufacturer, acting as the engineering foundation for the company’s forthcoming SJ36 model. The aircraft is slated for public display at the upcoming NBAA-BACE 2026 event at Henderson Executive Airport, where the company plans to debut its next-generation platform.
