DULUTH, Minn. & KNOXVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cirrus, the world’s best-selling high-performance single-engine piston aircraft manufacturer, revealed a one-of-a-kind, Limited-Edition SR Series aircraft to commemorate 10,000 SR Series deliveries. The 10,000th SR Series aircraft celebrates Cirrus’ past, present and future as well as the team who made this milestone possible.
Since the first delivery of the SR Series in 1999, Cirrus has pursued its guiding principles of delivering an aviation experience that is the pinnacle of innovation, quality and safety to its customers. This commitment is a testament to Cirrus’ perseverance and the SR Series’ continued evolution and success in delivering the next generation of personal aviation.
“The SR Series has reached a monumental achievement with 10,000 deliveries and owners that live the Cirrus Life,” said Zean Nielsen, Chief Executive Officer. “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. We are honored to celebrate 10,000 SR Series aircraft deliveries with our team members, partners and stakeholders.”
The SR Series continues to be the best-selling high-performance single-engine piston aircraft for 22 years. Cirrus achieved the 10,000th aircraft milestone because of its relentless innovation and ability to create industry-leading products and owner services.
In January 2024, Cirrus announced the new SR Series G7 featuring Perspective Touch+ by Garmin with multiple refinements made throughout the aircraft and an all-new interior. The Perspective Touch+ flight deck features expanded systems integration, large widescreen displays and a familiar touchscreen interface for reduced pilot workload and enhanced situational awareness. This system is the most advanced avionics suite available and unlocks new capabilities that seamlessly pair with the high performance of each SR Series model.
The Limited Edition 10,000 aircraft features a custom matte blue and white paint with a hallmark design inspired by forward-moving lines that carry from the front of the aircraft toward the tail interlacing a symbolic Roman numeral ten and showcasing unique details that commemorate Cirrus' milestone.
