It delivers 215 horsepower and has an oil capacity of 7 quarts. The maximum gross takeoff weight for the aircraft is 3150 lbs, and the maximum baggage compartment loading is 130 lbs.

Operational Specifications

The aircraft has a usable fuel capacity of 56 gallons (58.5 gallons total). Pilots must switch fuel tanks approximately every 20-25 minutes to maintain balance, with a CAS message triggered at a 7.5-gallon imbalance. Acceptable fuel types include 100LL and 100 octane. The aircraft is equipped with two fuel pumps: an engine-driven pump and an auxiliary electric pump, which must be used during critical phases of flight.

V-Speeds

The document lists important V-speeds for the Cirrus SR20 G7, including Vso at 62 KIAS, Vs at 71 KIAS, VR at 71-75 KIAS, VX at 81 KIAS, and VY at 96 KIAS. The maximum flap extended speed (VFE) is 150 KIAS (first notch) and 110 KIAS (second notch). The maximum operating speed (VO) is 133 KIAS, with VNO at 164 KIAS, VNE at 201 KIAS, and VG at 100 KIAS. The crosswind limit for the aircraft is 20 knots.

Safety notes

  • Ensure electric fuel pump is on during critical phases of flight such as takeoff and landing.
  • Set electric pump off and lean mixture after landing.
