Cirrus Jet

[mzaharis]

According to AIN Alerts, Cirrus is about to announce a single-engine "personal jet". Under 1 mil, 25,000 ceiling, 1,000NM range, 300KTAS cruise. Sounds like their competitor to Diamond's D-Jet. Should be interesting to see if they can keep to those numbers.

"The Duluth, Minn., company said the all-composite CirrusJet will be outfitted with an emergency ballistic parachute recovery system from BRS, which also supplies a similar system for Cirrus SR20 and SR22 piston singles."

Another micro-jet? I'm gonna need trading cards to keep them all straight.

I got a package in the mail from Cirrus. It contained a bunch of information on "the-jet" and a very nice metel coaster. I was actually kinda suprised I got that. Should be very exciting to see!

I'm waiting for Piper to unvail their jet later this month.

The Super Super Cub?

No, the HondaJet. To be somehow built/sold/supervised by Piper and its dealer network. We'll see how it goes, but they're saying 4 years before certification. Too long for my flight dept.

Piper is also rumored to be announcing a VLJ smaller than the 3-4 million Hondajet.
