G E N E R A T I O N 2 Relentless Innovation. The Cirrus Aircraft story is one of enthusiastic and relentless innovation. We started by re-imagining personal aviation with a piston aircraft that redefined performance, style, comfort and safety. And after six generations of the SR Series, we continue to raise the bar with improvements like sophisticated avionics and luxurious interiors. The Vision Jet™ is the culmination of that same spirit of innovation. As the world’s first Personal Jet™, the Vision Jet excels in performance and is simple to fly. It’s easy to own and operate. And it’s a joy to travel in, as a pilot and as a passenger. With the Vision Jet, we ushered in a new era of personal transportation. It’s an era where jet speed, jet comfort and jet convenience are accessible. And after winning numerous accolades and awards, including the Robert J. Collier Trophy, we are just getting started.

Safety has been fundamental to innovation at Cirrus Aircraft since the beginning. Our approach to safety includes revolutionary systems that create a wide array of protective layers – all of which are evidence of our deep rooted passion to create safer airplanes, safer pilots and safer skies. These layers of safety combine to create a total safety solution unique to every Vision Jet™, bringing added confidence to each pilot and every passenger.

Your Total safety Solution Passive safety systems. Every Vision Jet features integrated safety systems that are constantly working passively in the background to assist and alert the pilot without distracting or degrading the flight experience. The Electronic Stability & Protection (ESP) system aids in correcting unusual flight attitudes and preventing stalls, enhancing situational awareness with maximum and minimum airspeed alerts if the aircraft approaches an unsafe operating speed. And integrated avionics provide terrain awareness, traffic avoidance and weather overlays to provide visual and aural warnings that keep you updated, while focused on flying. Stall Barrier Angle of Attack Stick Shaker Stick Pusher Situational Awareness Terrain Awareness and Warning System Traffic Avoidance system SurfaceWatch™ SafeTaxi™ Turbine Confidence Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) Autothrottle Envelope Protection YAW Stability Augmentation System Electronic Stability Protection Dynamic VREF Indicator Cirrus Approach™. At Cirrus Aircraft, we believe that learning is a lifestyle. Safer pilots make safer skies, and the best pilots understand that flight training is an ongoing process that doesn’t stop once you get your pilot’s license or complete our Vision Jet Type Rating program. That’s why we developed Cirrus Approach, an innovative training program designed to standardize and streamline the flight training experience with an online learning library and a host of convenient tools so you can always stay up-to-date around your schedule. Safe Return. As a revolutionary addition to the total safety solution offered in your Vision Jet, the Safe Return emergency autoland system provides a new way to protect your passengers in the unlikely event of a pilot incapacitation – giving passengers the ability to land your Vision Jet with the simple touch of a button. Once activated, Safe Return automatically routes the aircraft to the nearest airport, navigating around terrain and weather to land the aircraft and deliver your passengers home safely, if for some reason the pilot is unable to land the aircraft. SAFE RETURN BUTTON CIrrus Airframe Parachute System. No feature embodies Cirrus Aircraft's dedication to safety more than CAPS. Introduced on the original SR20, CAPS was the first FAA-certified whole-airframe parachute safety system included as standard equipment on an aircraft. Now, over twenty years later, we continue to include CAPS as standard equipment on all SR Series and Vision Jets. As part of the total safety solution offered only in your Vision Jet, it’s there when you need it most. Award winning. The Vision Jet won the Robert J. Collier Trophy from the National Aeronautic Association for developing the world’s first single-engine Personal Jet and implementing the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) on the Vision Jet. As the world’s most prestigious aviation award, the Collier Trophy is awarded each year by the National Aeronautic Association to the greatest achievement in aeronautics or astronautics. It stands on display in the main entryway of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. Factory Direct Training. Nestled in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains in Knoxville, Tennessee, our Vision Center offers the world’s premier pilot training experience for both SR Series aircraft and the Vision Jet, including our brand new full-motion Level D Vision Jet flight simulator.
