\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Five Limited Edition Vision Jet liveries were created by\nCirrus Aircraft\u2019s Xi Design team to celebrate this industry milestone which\nwere all inspired by the jet’s unique design and bold colorways.

Legacy of Innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the initial release of the Vision Jet in 2016, the\nfirst major evolution of the SF50 was the introduction of the Generation 2 (G2)\nVision Jet in 2019. The G2 Vision Jet included RVSM Certification enabling the\naircraft to attain a maximum altitude of 31,000 feet (FL310). This increase in\naltitude brought with it more speed and better efficiency. The G2 also acquired\nan Auto Throttle and engineering improvements providing 200 lbs. of additional\npayload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2020, Safe Return Autoland was introduced. Based on the\nGarmin Auto Land system, the Vision Jet was the first jet aircraft to receive\nand certify this safety feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, the G2+ Vision Jet was introduced with up to a 25%\nincrease in takeoff performance and Wi-Fi. The G2+ Vision Jet enables\nconvenient regional travel by unlocking 40% more airports than previous generations\nwhen fully loaded on a hot day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, Cirrus Aircraft introduced Cirrus IQ and Garmin\u2019s\nAuto Radar to the Vision Jet, providing pilots with increased situational\nawareness and connectivity during all stages of pre-flight and inflight\nactivities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cirrus Aircraft has a long legacy of innovating and is the\ntwo-time partnering recipient of the prestigious Robert J. Collier Trophy for\nthe inclusion of the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System and Autoland on the\nVision Jet. The addition of Safe Return Autoland added a secondary safety\nsystem that, with the touch of a button, safely lands the Vision Jet at the\nnearest suitable airport avoiding weather, traffic and terrain while\nautonomously communicating with Air Traffic Control and putting emergency\nresponders in motion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
