O U R S T O R Y THE CIRRUS REVOLUTION In a world where overstatement and exaggeration are commonplace, few products genuinely create disruptive innovation. Cirrus Aircraft, starting as little more than a boyhood dream of two brothers in a Wisconsin barn, can truly lay claim to having revolutionized an industry. Refusing to accept the aviation standard of design that was mired in the past, the Cirrus co-founders dismissed the status quo and reinvented the idea of personal transportation. Using advanced materials and technologies, Cirrus created an aircraft that was safer, faster, and more comfortable than any personal aircraft had ever been. The clean-sheet, breakthrough design incorporated a comfortable interior worthy of a luxury automobile, a multi-function instrument display to provide faster access to better information and the remarkable, life-saving Cirrus Airframe Parachute System® , a first for a certified, production aircraft. From day one, the co-founders of Cirrus Aircraft were determined to change the world, and a company founded on innovation can never settle. Through the years, the Cirrus SR product line has been continuously refined and enhanced with improvements to performance, comfort, convenience, and most importantly, safety. Introducing the culmination of these collective advances: The Cirrus Aircraft G6. The Cirrus revolution continues. ™ C O M F O R T SEAMLESS LUXURY The stunning interior of a Cirrus aircraft seamlessly integrates luxury, style, technology and convenience. It evokes the feeling of sliding into a thoughtfully crafted, fine automobile. The design is immediately familiar and the appointments imminently comfortable. Sweeping lines flow like the air outside in flight, boldly stating that form need not always follow function. AUTO-INSPIRED ERGONOMICS Each seat offers commanding views from expansive windows designed to accentuate and brighten the spacious cabin. Controls fall readily to hand, subtle lighting in each footwell says “step this way” and individual overhead lighting both front and back provide personal, directional illumination for reading. LIFESTYLE CONVENIENCE The Cirrus aircraft offers a world of possibilities, where adventure is limited only by your imagination. The cabin is designed to accommodate your mission, your family, your gear and your lifestyle. The 60/40 fold-down rear seatbacks offer greater flexibility for passengers and cargo in almost any combination. PERFORMANCE SEATS The bolstered, reclining seats cosset you in luxurious hand-stitched European Leather, and durable Alcantara® accents can be added for a touch of sporty sophistication. Flexible rear seating invites passengers to relax, enables easy transport of gear, and provides more room than any other plane in its category. High-power USB charging ports are easily accessible from anywhere in the cabin to quickly recharge mobile devices and keep them energized throughout the flight. Thoughtfully placed cup holders and mobile device storage pockets provide convenient places for life’s necessities and minimize clutter. Even your headsets have holders on the upper sides of the seats so they’re at the ready but out of the way. TECH PUBLICATIONS C I R R U S I Q ™ ALWAYS CONNECTED.

A closer look at the Cirrus Aircraft safety equation reveals a wide array of additional protective layers made up of innovative systems that transition from passive, to redundant and then active. Driven by the profound passion to create safer airplanes, safer pilots and safer skies, each model in the Cirrus Aircraft SR Series has been designed with a purposeful integration of robust safety systems. SMART REDUNDANCY Cirrus Perspective+ incorporates smart redundancy, fault tolerance and robustness to provide the safest, most reliable, all-digital flight deck experience available. Each Cirrus aircraft is equipped with two alternators, two batteries, two Air Data Attitude and Heading Reference Systems (ADAHRS) and multiple electrical buses to isolate essential equipment and insure that power will be supplied to critical components even if multiple power source failures are experienced. STALL & SPIN PROTECTION From the very early stages of Cirrus Aircraft development, stall and spin

prevention has been central to our aircraft design, avionics development and flight training philosophy. Every Cirrus SR Series aircraft incorporates the NASA-developed wing technology with a “cuffed” discontinuous leading edge designed to minimize the potential for spin entry after an inadvertent stall. The digital, three-axis autopilot enables the Electronic Stability & Protection (ESP) system, which passively and unobtrusively corrects unusual flight attitudes even when the autopilot is not engaged. UNCOMPROMISING SAFETY SYNTHETIC VISION Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT™) provides a three-dimensional virtual image of ground and water features as well as obstacles and traffic. It’s a clear digital representation of the world around you, regardless of conditions and time of day. DIGITAL AUTOPILOT The fully digital, three-axis autopilot delivers precise lateral and vertical navigation guidance for a smooth ride during each phase of flight. This jet-class system also incorporates the industry first Blue Level Button for an additional layer of safety. BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY Wireless connectivity between mobile devices and the Cirrus Perspective+™ flight deck is made possible with Bluetooth®. In the blink of an eye, transfer flight plans, receive updated weather and traffic data on your mobile device and tune into your music or phone audio without cumbersome cords. CIRRUS GLOBAL CONNECT Satellite connectivity for worldwide text messaging and telephone service. Outside of North America, Global Connect also provides optional Datalink Weather. In the air or on the ground, always stay connected to what matters most. DATABASE CONCIERGE Database Concierge, exclusively available through Garmin Pilot™, enables wireless updates of aviation databases both on the ground and in the air. Now you can spend more time flying and less time managing databases. FLIGHT INTO KNOWN ICE The Cirrus ice protection system is equipped and certified for Flight into Known Icing conditions (FIKI). When activated, the system coats flight surfaces with anti-ice fluid and provides dynamic stall speed indications on the PFD. The system is operated and monitored through the Cirrus Perspective+™ flight deck. I N T E G R A T I O N & C O N N E C T I V I T Y WORKLOAD REDUCTION Cirrus Perspective+TM by Garmin® seamlessly integrates all aircraft system health and status information with external data, presenting a user-friendly synopsis for maximum situational awareness. Colorful, bright displays connect the pilot visually and aurally with the information needed to monitor every aspect of the aircraft in real time, quickly identify changing conditions and make intelligent, informed decisions. Engine data, fluid levels and flow rates, real-time animated weather and traffic and air data information – all at the pilot’s fingertips. The result: the most responsive, smartest and safest experience available in this category of aircraft. 1 2 5 6 7 3 4 1 SURFACEWATCH Progressive alerts on the flight displays enhance situational awareness as the aircraft enters and moves through the airport environment.

SPECTRA™ WINGTIP LIGHTING Cirrus Spectra™ wingtip lighting makes an iconic statement while increasing brightness two-fold. Automotive-style wingtip halo lighting automatically operates within 300’ of the surface, and pulsing “wig-wag” functionality above 300’ maximizes visibility to others giving the G6 an unmistakable presence anywhere in the world, day and night. INCREASED SPEED Leading edge wing and tail panels have been streamlined and wheel pant tolerances have been tightened to further reduce drag. The result is an airplane that is up to 9 knots faster. Spectra™ Illuminated Steps project from the step to the ground and may vary in appearance in different environments. LIVE THE CIRRUS LIFE YOUR WAY The Cirrus Life™ can be measured in moments. Productive moments that enhance your business side. Priceless moments that can never be repeated...or replaced. But what is The Cirrus Life? The answer is: It’s yours to define in your own distinctly personal way. It’s getting back from the meeting in time to see your child’s epic moment in the game.
