![]() ![]() The Cirrus represents a solid, if somewhat expensive, upgrade from the SR-2X aircraft. The Cirrus still uses a castering nosewheel as opposed to NWS equippped on most jets, etc. Many of the systems do not have the creature comforts of the big boys e.g. The Cirrus is spacious compared with an SR-22 but it's nothing impressive when it comes to light jets and it's not even in the same league as larger jets. The Vision's pressurization isn't on par with similar jets, probably being limited to a 5-6 psi cabin differential, yielding around an 8,000 ft cabin altitude at 28000 ft. Ther are other items that aren't immediately visible but play an important factor in the cost difference, chiefly cabin environment. As a yardstick for comparison, an Embraeer Phenom 100 with a similar sized cabin, at roughly twice the cost of a Vision is capable of over 400 KTAS (Mach 0.70) at FL410 with an 1100 NM range with alternate and IFR fuel reserves. The Vision is also not RVSM certified, limiting operations to 28,000 ft. Ranges of approx 1200 NM are possible, depending on payload, but at an economy cruise of 240 KTAS, making it faster than the owner's old SR-22T but slower that nearly all turbobprops and probably more expensive to operate. It sounds enticing to an SR-22T owner looking to upgrade, but consider that high end turboprops like the TBM-9XX are leaving you in the dust by at least 20 knots and using 40% less fuel to do so. Depending on payload, the Vision has about at 600 NM range at its max cruising speed of 300 KTAS, burning a stiff 84 gallons/hr. The primary differences in performance between the Cirrus and other light jet aircraft is that it's much slower and suffers from 'short legs'. People think 'oh it's a jet for $2 mil - I want one' but remain fairly ignorant of exactly what that means compared with other jet aircraft. ![]() Typical mission would be able to carry an additional 150 lb on an 800 nm mission, with top cruise speed further above 300 kts.I read an article on the SF-50 recently published in AOPA Pilot and, to be honest the Cirrus Jet is not even in the same league as the other aircraft mentioned.Improved noise reduction over the first-generation Vision Jet.Improved Electrical System with Intelligent Batteries, Auto-deploy Passenger Oxygen, Perspective Touch+ by Garmin, 14” High Resolution Displays, CMC – Enhanced Data Logging, Cargo X-Tend ADS-B In weather & Traffic, F元10 and RVSM Capability, increased range or payload capabilities, quieter cabin, Autothrottle, Flight Stream by Garmin.
