\u201cThe Cirrus Aircraft story is one of relentless innovation,\u201d\nsaid Pat Waddick, President, Innovation & Operations. \u201cMuch like the last\ntwenty years of re-imagining the SR Series with constant improvements to\nperformance, safety and comfort, the G2 Vision Jet is the culmination of that\nsame spirit of innovation. This aircraft is yet another game-changer in\npersonal aviation and it\u2019s made possible by the world-class team we have at\nCirrus Aircraft.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Higher, Faster and Farther<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The G2 Vision Jet goes higher, faster and farther. An\nexpanded flight envelope to Flight Level 310 (31,000 ft) raises the performance\nand capabilities of the all new aircraft. This new access to Reduced Vertical\nSeparation Minimum (RVSM) flight levels now increases the Vision Jet\u2019s range to\nover 1,200nm. On a typical mission, G2 now provides increased flexibility to\ncarry an additional 150 lb on an 800 NM mission and pushes top cruise speed\neven further above 300kts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perspective Touch+ and Autothrottle<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The G2 Vision Jet introduces the \u2018Perspective Touch+\u2019 by\nGarmin (pronounced \u201cPerspective Touch Plus\u201d) advanced flight deck. With new\nhardware, faster processing speeds and greater screen resolution, Perspective\nTouch+ elevates the Vision Jet flight deck to a new level. Typically found on\nhigh-end business jets and commercial transport aircraft, Autothrottle is now\navailable on G2. This game-changing technology integrates with the autopilot\nand can automatically adjust the aircraft\u2019s speed for each phase of flight,\nreducing workload and giving the pilot more time to focus on other tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
New Flight Stream capabilities simplify the pilot\u2019s\nexperience by creating connectivity between your personal mobile device and the\nflight deck \u2013 enabling a wide range of wireless enhancements including flight\nplan transfers, database updates, text messaging and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Collectively, these new G2 features add to the class-leading\ncapabilities of the Vision Jet flight deck including 3D Synthetic Vision,\nSurfaceWatchTM, integrated crew alerting, datalink weather, active weather\nradar, ADS-B, satellite communications, system synoptics and more. Upgraded\nIntelligent Batteries from True Blue Power\u00ae round out enhancements delivering\nimproved cold start capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Transformative Cabin Experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Designed around the personal travel experience, the G2\nVision Jet cabin raises the bar in comfort, spaciousness and productivity. A\nnew executive seating configuration adds sophistication with two luxurious,\nartisan-crafted second row seats and an all-new center console with stow-away\ntables for a more productive in-flight experience. Enhancing the cabin\nenvironment, newly-developed noise reduction features have been thoughtfully\nengineered into G2. These improvements build upon the unrivaled spaciousness\nand panoramic views, the hallmarks of the Vision Jet design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Productivity and entertainment options abound as passengers\nhave access to USB and 110V power outlets, as well as an expansive video\nmonitor that extends from its flush mount overhead to deliver a best-in-class\nrange of display and entertainment options from your favorite device. While the\nfamily seating configuration offers room for 5 adults and 2 children, each\ncabin seat is modular and can be quickly and easily repositioned or removed by\nthe pilot, offering the added flexibility of more than 25 possible seating\nconfigurations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A New Era in Personal Transportation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Vision Jet received FAA certification in 2016 and\nimmediately ushered in a new era in personal aviation as the world\u2019s first\nsingle-engine Personal Jet including the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System\u00ae\n(CAPS\u00ae). In 2018, the Vision Jet was awarded the most prestigious award in\naeronautics \u2013 the Robert J. Collier Trophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Approaching 100 customer deliveries around the world, Vision\nJet owners enjoy the added value of a truly comprehensive ownership program \u2013\nJetStream, offering worry-free ownership, JetStream includes the award-winning\nWilliams International \u2018TAP Blue\u2019 turbine engine coverage, airframe and avionics\nmaintenance, normal wear item replacements, recurrent pilot training and more.\n\nG2 Vision Jets began delivering in January.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
