The newest generation aircraft will feature touchscreen interfaces, large highresolution displays, advanced safety systems, improved visibility, increased legroom, enhanced convenience features and the Cirrus IQ mobile app. The G7 will integrate a high-tech intuitive touchscreen-controlled flight deck with a comfortable and aesthetic cabin. The flight deck will reduce pilot workload and offer enhanced situational awareness for pilots and passengers. With the popular SR Series and Vision Jet, Cirrus has defined personal aviation by aligning the flight deck, cabin experiences and training programmes such as the Private Pilot Programme, which provide a clear progression in flight from the learning stage and owning an SR Series aircraft to piloting a Vision Jet.
"Our mission is to increase participation in aviation so more people can benefit from the freedom, productivity and joy it provides," Cirrus Aircraft CEO Zean Nielsen said. "We have also developed a comprehensive ecosystem providing global sales, flight training, maintenance and support to ensure our owners have a seamless ownership experience.
Our aircraft are truly designed with people in mind and the new SR Series G7 is a testament to that philosophy. Our team and our aircraft provide a clear path to enter and advance within the personal aviation community by learning how to fly and eventually transition to the Vision Jet with ease."
The latest generation in the best-selling single-engine piston aircraft family, the G7, is a continuation of the high-performing SR Series product line. Cirrus has delivered nearly 10,000 TRAC/20/22/22T, SR20, SR22 and SR22T. The SR Series product line continues to lead in the high-performance, single-engine piston market and has a history of industry-first achievements. The SR20 was first delivered in 1999 and is now a part of the 'We All Fly' exhibition at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.
