The high performance class leader with its
easy handling and advanced technology

We added more speed and performance to the SR20's formidable flying qualities and created our next generation model – the SR22. It was FAA certified in 2000 and is today the industry's best selling model. In April of 2007, Generation Three of the SR22 made its debut and shook up the General Aviation industry yet again. With nearly 700 changes and systems improvements, the SR22-G3 represents the culmination of virtually everything Cirrus has learned about engineering and design since we first opened our hangar doors.

With technology that’s descended from jets, Cirrus Perspective has set a new standard in avionics available to pilots of Cirrus aircraft. Designed for maximum capability and intuitive use, Cirrus Perspective with Synthetic Vision Technology offers pilots unparalleled situational awareness, the option to incorporate an available Enhanced Vision System, and a smooth-flying and sophisticated autopilot. Add it all up and Cirrus Perspective reduces pilot workload while increasing safety and utility. Once you fly it, there’s no going back.

The new perspective in avionics
As a pilot, you sit in a cockpit and experience the world in ways others can only imagine. As leaders in technology and navigation, Cirrus and Garmin sat in the cockpit and re-imagined ways to revolutionize the flying experience. Now Cirrus Perspective makes that new vision a reality in the airplane. With aspirations to reinvent extraordinary in the personal aircraft cockpit, we developed integrated technology and features found in no other general aviation aircraft. We included new safety features to reduce your work load and anxiety by giving you more time to think and improving flight environment manageability. Ultimately, with Cirrus Perspective you get a smoother, more precise flying experience while all the time knowing you are flying smarter, flying safer. Take a closer look at Cirrus Perspective by Garmin and you’ll understand why we recreated the cockpit using this new perspective.

Perspective ESP
Cirrus Aircraft announced the availability of Perspective ESP, a revolutionary safety and flight stability augmentation system by Garmin that will be available on Cirrus SR-Series Aircraft for new orders scheduled for Fall 2010 delivery. The key feature for Perspective ESP is that the system operates when the Garmin GFC 700 autopilot has been disengaged, that is when hand-flying. Perspective ESP operates in the background and if the pilot becomes incapacitated, disoriented or distracted, the system uses the digital autopilot servos and sensors to detect and help correct unsafe flight conditions. After it senses things are back to normal, it goes back into the background. Similar systems of this sophistication and capability were previously available only the world’s most advanced and most expensive ‘fly-by-wire’ business and military jets.
Key components and features of the Perspective ESP system are:
- Enhances safety by providing electronic stability and protection for aircraft being hand-flown
- Activates whenever the airplane exceeds one or more flight parameters
- Uses autopilot servos and sensors, yet operates when the autopilot is turned off
- Helps correct excessive pitch attitude, roll attitude, or airspeed
- ESP augments pilot vigilance: Assists, but does not take control
- Can be overridden by the pilot at any time
- Increases corrective pressure as exceedances move beyond safe limits
- Gently returns the aircraft to stable, straight-and-level flight
- Operates unobtrusively and simulates aircraft’s natural flight stability
- Can be temporarily turned off for training or flights where extreme maneuvering is anticipated.
