Jeffrey is instrument rated and has more than 2,300 hours in piston-engine planes, including Bonanzas, Cirrus, Cessnas and Pipers. The Cirrus “SR-series of high-performance piston airplanes are the best-selling aircraft in the world for 14 consecutive years – with over 6,500 aircraft operating in over 60 countries.”Ĭopyright 2017 wikiWings LLC, All rights reserved The new wing increased fuel capacity to 81 gallons (The G3 wing expanded usable fuel to 92 gallons). The SR22 had a wider wingspan, beefed up wing spar and larger elevator. The cabin section between the two models were basically the same. In 2006, the SR22 Turbo pushed these numbers over 192 knots at cruise altitudes in the teens. The normally aspirated SR22 will cruise in the 170 -180 range while the SR20 runs about 150 knots (not bad). The SR20 had a Continental IO-360ES 200-HP motor. and with the G5 gross weight increased to 2,600 lbs.). This gave the SR22 more payload capacity and speed (Gross weight 3,400 lbs.

Two years later the SR22 was certified and GA would not be the same. Nine certified SR20’s were shipped in 1999 as reported by the General Aviation Management Association (GAMA). In 1998 the FAA certified their first airplane – The Cirrus SR20. They had a bigger vision that would change general aviation. By the late 1990’s the Klapmeier brothers had moved away from constructing kit planes.
