The Plane
With the Parachute
Cirrus aircraft are one of the safest general aviation light aircraft, with all planes equipped as standard with a CAPS™ (Cirrus Airframe Parachute System) for the whole plane. This is an integral and life-saving device in the event a pilot loses controls of their plane, and is not a standard feature in other brands of light aircraft.

Autopilot backed by Dual AHRS
Primary and multifunction displays with a moving map, satellite weather information, Synthetic Vision, infrared EVS, and traffic information to improve situational awareness

Comfortable 26G seating to keep you alert and protected
Airbag seatbelts
