Topic: Cirrus SR20


In the News (Mon 17 Jun 13)

  
  Cirrus SR20 (and a bit about the SR22)
Cirrus is trying to market these planes to yuppies who've never flown light aircraft before and who lost interest in old metal airplanes because they were too noisy and uncomfortable compared to a modern car.
Cirrus ducked out of paying by noting some fine print: "The seller does not provide any warranty either expressed or implied for those items which are expressly warranted by the specific manufacturer." The buyer had paid for a three-year extended warranty, but the alternator was only covered by a one-year warranty.
Cirrus obviously thinks so because as of June 2005 they are offering a $7,000 incentive package on the SR22 to student pilots and VFR pilots with less than 250 hours of total time (the incentive does not apply to the lower-power lower-speed SR20).

 Science Fair Projects - Cirrus SR20
One of the major selling points for the SR20 is that it has a fully digital avionics suite with one 10-inch Avidyne FlightMax primary flight display and one multi-function display.
The SR20, like the slightly faster SR22, is equipped with Cirrus Design's Cirrus Aircraft Parachute System, a large parachute which can be deployed in an emergency to lower the entire aircraft to the ground safely.
On June 1 2004, the SR20 became the first aircraft to achieve the new European Aviation Safety Agency certificate for aircraft imported into the European Union.

But the SR20 incorporates several other design priorities that make it the prototype for personal airplanes that are easier and safer to operate, and which are capable of doing so at performance/cost levels that make them compelling alternatives to ground or airline travel.
Automotive cues abound in the SR20, clearly intended to help what Cirrus and other makers hope is a meaningful migration of disposable income from high-ticket, largely status-symbol automobiles to relatively inexpensive practical recreation aircraft.
Cirrus Design has invested heavily in people, parts, and facilities on the premise that there is an unreached segment of the population for whom price, performance, simplicity, and significantly increased safety margins will be compelling arguments for using personal aircraft for travel.

 StudentPilot.com Message Board - Cirrus SR20 vs SR22 insurance...wow
On a side note....they had the founder of Cirrus on a Small Business radio talk show last week and he stated that since the Cirrus has a ballistic parachute....anyone can fly with without worry of an aircraft safety issue.....
For the SR20, the numbers are lower for the lower hours and no instrument rating, which is opposite of the SR22 and GTS quotes.
Cirrus encourages lower time pilots to take addendums to their insurance such as if you're below 500TT, you can't take the plane into IMC until you have 100 Time in Type.

 Cirrus SR20 Icing Encounters
Given the spate of Cirrus pilots who've managed to set their planes on fire with the brakes, and the fact that we'd never seen a leaking airplane braking system, we were a bit concerned about this.
Nonetheless, comparing the Cirrus SR20 to my old Diamond Star DA40, I have to say that I think the SR20's performance degrades more quickly.
If you are going to use a plane for point-to-point transportation, live anywhere other than Arizona, and hope to keep to a schedule, there is no substitute for an airplane that is approved by the FAA for flight into known icing (FIKI).

One of the fallacies of flying IFR in marginal-to-good weather is that it’s safe to presume everyone else out there is on the same page, under the watchful eye of ATC.
