3/29/2024 0 Comments CIRRUS SR22 GTS interiorThe Cirrus version has nearly all of the same functions and improvements as the version made for King Air retrofits-and then some. We covered the G1000 NXi in the February 2017 issue of Aviation Consumer so we won’t go into the architecture here. Cirrus was the first OEM to adopt the new system, which it calls the Perspective+. Whether it’s the entry-level SR20 (we’ll look at it in a separate article) or the flagship SR22T, a sizable upgrade to the model line is Garmin’s G1000 NXi next-generation integrated flight deck. In addition to delivering several Vision Jets, Cirrus began 2017 by launching the G6, its sixth-gen SR model line and as we go to press, delivery slots for the latest and greatest SR22T are booked out to August.įor this report we took the keys to N828PT, a spanking new SR22T, for a couple of days, which included a round-robin cross-country trip from our home base in New England with a stop at the evolving Cirrus Vision Center customer delivery and support campus in Knoxville, Tennessee. While recent GAMA sales reports showed a flat market for new piston aircraft sales, Cirrus enjoyed continued sales growth-selling 317 total units in 2016-bringing the global fleet to more than 6500 SR series aircraft. Just how many buyers would spend nearly $1 million for an unpressurized piston single, you might ask? More than you might think. Cirrus offers less expensive models, of course, but the turbocharged SR22T is the most popular seller. Let’s get this out of the way, shall we? Cirrus salespeople aren’t apologetic that a fully loaded 2017 SR22T GTS comes with an eye-widening invoice north of $900,000 when you tack on an extended warranty.
