OSHKOSH, Wisconsin—Cirrus is celebrating a major milestone as the company has delivered 10,000 SR series aircraft and 560 SF50 vision jets, making it the third largest aviation manufacturer in the world.
The company’s 10,000th SR Series aircraft, appropriately named N10000, is on display at EAA AirVenture this week.
“From the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) to the Perspective Touch+ flight deck, Cirrus continuously innovates to provide owners with personal aircraft that set the industry standard for aviation safety, luxury, convenience and ease of ownership," Cirrus CEO Zean Nielsen said in a press release. "We are honored to celebrate 10,000 SR Series aircraft deliveries with our team members, partners, and stakeholders,”
Cirrus says achieving the milestone is a testament to its innovation and ability to develop industry-leading products. One of the latest technologies Cirrus has introduced are the Apple Vision flight training goggles, which enable augmented reality walk-arounds of aircraft.
During a press briefing at AirVenture, Todd Simmons, Cirrus president of customer experience, highlighted the company’s expansion, noting its new aircraft programs in Kissimmee, Florida; Scottsdale, Arizona; and McKinney, Texas. Simmons mentioned that most of the customers in the Cirrus management program are Vision Jet owners.
Simmons also noted that prior to the pandemic, some 13 percent of customers coming to Cirrus were new to aviation. He said that spiked to around 40 percent during the height of the pandemic but now it’s about 29 percent.
