Cirrus success - Pilots of America Cirrus builds what the legacy manufacturers don’t seem interested in: Efficient, fast, comfortable planes with the latest avionics, made of modern materials Piper’s closest equivalent was designed in the 70s; Cessna’s nearest competitor hasn’t been made for nearly 40 years
A Statistical Analysis of Cirrus Accidents - Pilots of America As most of you are aware, I do a lot of Homebuilt accident statistical analyses, using the NTSB accident database As part of that, I occasionally use the same processes to look at particular production-type aircraft The ongoing discussions re: Cirrus accidents got me curious So I fired up

Whats the difference in the SR22T and SR22TN? - Pilots of America Originally Cirrus used the Tornado Alley Turbo STC to build the SR22TN They basically took their regular plane with the IO550K and bolted the TAT system to it right at the factory The engine has the same compression and the turbo only maintains a charging pressure slightly above atmospheric (30 5in or so) to compensate for the effect of increased backpressure Two years ago or so, Cirrus
Cirrus checkout? - Pilots of America Many Cirrus pilots have lost their lives by not learning to respect this aircraft, thinking it's "easy" Comfortable, fast, and efficient? Yes Easy to fly? NO! Just ask some of the Cirrus pilots with hundreds of Cirrus hours who have had major and minor accidents Anyone who thinks a Cirrus is easy to fly is headed for trouble
SR22 Instability - Pilots of America Cirrus recovered from 61 test spins using standard recovery technique in Europe with no anomalies noted by the test pilots The pilots remarked that it seemed difficult to get the aircraft to enter a spin
Cirrus v. Bonanza - Pilots of America The Cirrus does not have the complexity of retractable gear and all the systems, avionics, etc will be newer, so perhaps more reliable The SR20 engine should be less expensive than the 6-cyl Continental in a Bonanza
