Made in the United States, Cirrus set out on a mission to reimagine the small aircraft experience with the pilot and passengers in mind through the development of the SR Series aircraft.

The SR Series brought to market the convergence of high-performance aircraft combined with the luxury and innovation seen in the smart auto industry, to aviators and enthusiasts alike. The SR Series offers a comfortable and safe flight experience with unexpected spaciousness for five people, clear information displayed on the avionics screen, redundant safety systems, and convenient features such as air conditioning, ample storage, and device connectivity for you and your passengers to enjoy.

From the renowned Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS), a whole airframe parachute that has returned over 270 people home safely since 1999, to the Cirrus Approach in-house flight training program where anyone can earn a Private Pilot License, to the touchscreen Perspective Touch+ avionics powered by Garmin, Cirrus continues to bring personal aviation closer to the masses thanks to the approachable mindset embedded in the company’s design philosophy.

Now with over 10,000 SR Series aircraft delivered and 17 million flight hours logged, Cirrus has introduced the SR Series G7+ featuring Safe Return Emergency Autoland – an autonomous safety feature that leverages advanced algorithms and sensors to fly to a suitable nearby airport in the event the pilot becomes incapacitated, or another inflight emergency occurs. Safe Return is easily accessible by the touch of a button which is centrally located on the cabin ceiling.

Safe Return Emergency Autoland has been featured on the Cirrus Vision Jet since 2019, but this is the first time in history that the Safe Return Emergency Autoland system has been meticulously engineered into a single-engine piston aircraft. Now that Safe Return is accessible to the growing Cirrus aircraft market, more pilots and passengers will have added state-of-the-art safety systems to leverage in the event of an emergency.
