The Cirrus SR22’s arrival on the market more than 20 years ago marked a new direction and a new standard for general aviation aircraft.

Certified piston airplanes capable of transporting a family of four no longer had to be composed of aluminum panels held together with hundreds of rivets. For the first time in decades, small personal aircraft design seemed to be advancing.

The new airplane’s sleek, smooth, and aerodynamic composite airframe and powerful engine combined to provide impressive, reliable performance beyond what earlier models offered. Potential customers as well as rivals in the industry were surprised that the Cirrus models could fly so fast without retracting their landing gear.

The standard-equipment Cirrus airframe parachute placed the SR22 and SR20 even further ahead of competitors. The novel safety device gives pilots more options in emergency situations. In recent years similar parachute systems have become available as modifications for earlier makes and models, confirming the market for airframe parachutes stretches beyond the Cirrus lineup.

This 2020 Cirrus has 700 hours on the airframe, its Continental engine, and Hartzell three-blade scimitar propeller. The aircraft comes with a warranty until April 2025.

The panel features the Cirrus Perspective Plus avionic suite, which includes dual WAAS GPS receivers, dual AHARS, dual air data computers, dual Garmin 12-inch displays, Garmin GMA-350c audio panel, GTX 345R transponder with ADS-B In and Out, GFC 700 autopilot with yaw damper and electronic stability, synthetic vision, QWERTY keyboard controller, Garmin Active Traffic, SiriusXM weather and radio, Garmin Flight Stream, engine monitor, and enhanced ground proximity warning system.

Additional features and equipment include air conditioning, TKS anti-ice system, five-place oxygen system, and Tanis engine preheater.

Pilots interested in a modern, high-performance piston single with composite construction and a long list of features to satisfy pilots and passengers should consider this 2020 Cirrus SR22T-G6, which is available for $829,900 on AircraftForSale.
