Our mission for the day was to fire it up and run the engine for about 10-15 minutes so it could “catch some air”. The aircraft in question is a SR-22 G2, registered 9A-BDG, bought new a couple of years ago (and had as such represented a quantum leap for Croatian general aviation :D). Having only been in a Cirrus once in my life – in a brand-new SR-22 G3 at the Paris Air Show – I was naturally through the roof, especially it being a beautiful and calm sunny day just begging for some camera work :). to fire up a privately-owned Cirrus SR-22 that had been sitting on the ground for a spell and needed to be flown to Germany for maintenance. Delivery timeframes are not yet available but estimates range from 6 months to 2 years on custom models.Arriving at the field a few days ago not expecting much to happen – just some quiet and calm flying around – I was pleasantly surprised when my flight instructor (who’d be flying with me for a checkup) informed me that instead of the usual dull circuits and maneuvers, we’d be heading to Zagreb Intl. The 2022 SR20 has a starting price of $524,600 and the SR22 has a starting price of $722,900. Interior seating options include an all-leather interior or the addition of black Alcantara inserts.Ĭirrus has opened order books for both the G6 SR20 and SR22. Eight new paint colors have been introduced for the G6 SR in partnership with Sherwin Williams Aerospace. Cirrus IQ can be accessed by the aircraft owner via a mobile app. Cirrus IQ monitors the maintenance status of the aircraft and alerts the owner when maintenance is required, logs flights and flight information, and keeps track of the aircraft's warranty status. A brand new system for 2022 is Cirrus IQ, a cloud-based aircraft connectivity system. In the cabin, a new, multi-functional USB panel features both USB-A and USB-C ports keeping mobile devices such as phones or laptops charged. The G6 SR features Cirrus Aircraft Spectra™ illuminated steps which provide better step and ground visibility for a safer entry and exit during dark or low light conditions. The door to the luggage compartment can now be unlocked and opened remotely via the keyless entry system Cirrus offers, the door also opens more than 90 degrees and stays open in that position for easy loading of baggage. The 2022 G6 SR series has several upgrades over the previous generation, including upgrades to the avionics, interior, and airframe. These aerodynamic refinements contribute to both reduced fuel consumption and faster flight segments. The new model’s ice panel transition seams are smoothed and wheel pant tolerances tightened to reduce drag.

The 2022 G6 SR series has several upgrades over the previous generation, including upgrades to the avionics, interior, and airframe. The 6th generation SR is the fastest to date featuring sleeker wing and tail surfaces and redesigned wheel pants, resulting in true airspeeds of up to 9 knots faster. The Cirrus SR series has dominated the market of high-performance piston aircraft for well over a decade and Cirrus intends to keep it that way with continuous improvements to the aircraft's design. Cirrus has manufactured over 8,000 SR20 and SR22 aircraft over the past 20+ years. Global general aviation leader, Cirrus Aircraft, has revealed the next generation of their SR series of aircraft.
