Aircraft Details
The Cirrus Vision SF50 represents a groundbreaking achievement in aviation as the world's first certified single-engine personal jet. Purpose-built as a logical step-up for Cirrus SR22 owners, this innovative aircraft creates an entirely new category in the market—the Personal Jet—bridging the gap between high-performance piston aircraft and traditional light jets.
Powered by a Williams International FJ33-5A turbofan producing 1,846 pounds of thrust, the Vision SF50 achieves an impressive 311-knot maximum cruise speed with a range of 1,200 nautical miles. The aircraft features a revolutionary carbon fiber airframe—the first for a production jet—contributing to its light 3,550-pound empty weight while providing exceptional strength and durability with a 12,000-hour life limit.
The cabin accommodates up to six passengers (plus pilot) in a flexible configuration, with a unique modular seating arrangement that can adapt to various mission profiles. Despite its compact 30-foot 11-inch length, the Vision SF50 offers 170 cubic feet of cabin space with large windows creating an open, airy environment. A V-tail design and distinctive over-fuselage engine placement give the aircraft its unmistakable profile.
What truly distinguishes the Vision SF50 is its unparalleled safety features. As the only jet equipped with the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS), it provides ultimate peace of mind. The G2 model introduced Garmin's groundbreaking Safe Return autoland system—the first jet to receive FAA approval for this technology—allowing one-touch automated emergency landings if the pilot becomes incapacitated. The Perspective Touch+ flight deck provides an SR22-like interface, easing the transition for Cirrus pilots while delivering sophisticated jet capabilities.
With a 2024 list price of $2.75 million, the Vision SF50 delivers jet performance and capabilities to owner-pilots without requiring the operational complexity and expense of traditional business jets.
