SR Series: Introducing the 2020 G6 

too bad that songs about a gulfstream

100% agree that app just makes it easier for the 1%ers to be able to call the FBO and have them pull their million dollar airplane out and fuel it :)

I'm personally really unsure about the smart features... Such small planes can get like 30 to 40 years old. In 10 years nobody will be able to use those smart features anymore.

Some one is gonna user the app and slack on preflight just to regard it. I am calling it.

well yeah, you should obviously still do a preflight check before every flight, regardless of an app that tells you your airplane's stats. However, the app could definitely be helpful to get a general idea of your oil level, fuel status, etc so you can notify the FBO before hand and a line guy can go out and fill up your tanks and add some more oil. Therefore, it can be a bit of a time saver.

the app has all of that data in the new update

thats actually reasonable for a plane like that

Esa Khwaja nope.

@@esakhwaja8592 I do get it’s expensiveness, though, id prefer a good ol cessna

Actually it is $1,080,000.00 fully loaded, 4 blade prop, and Xi edition. But they are absolutely GREAT airplanes that hold their value extremely well. This will be my 5th. I’ve owned one continuously for the last 17 years.

aCtUaLLy............

German Storms jesus you cant just put your mind to something and money will just appear. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@@3poundmeal-deal736 lol 🙏💪

Yeah it’s the e-type of the sky for surr

Yeah bruh

now that flybe is dead, there is basically none.

@@randoseworld5557 WOW Air, WiZZ

They come in 20 colors and combinations. You can even order one with totally custom colors and embroidered seats. All of them get the tail number sewn into the floor mats too.

You should have flown Flybe

Ever seen a mooney acclaim? ;)

@@jorisvermeulen7175 Sure. They are old school...clunky...not selling. Mooney is bankrupt again btw.

@@gbigsangle3044 we were talking looks not financial status nor selling rates... And old school? Lol you must be joking...

@@jorisvermeulen7175 The sales stat PROVES who makes the better product. Again, Mooney is bankrupt...understand now? Bankrupt means NO ONE wants them.

@@gbigsangle3044 mooney's marketing was flawed which lead to their demise and again we weren't talking about "the better airplane" we were talking looks... and your statement that the mooney acclaim is old school is just wrong bud...

One knot speed improvement and a 5% climb improvement over the standard three-blade propeller

@@gbigsangle3044 Does that matter?

@@amaanoliyath4875 No. In my SR22T I climb at half rate unless I am facing a mountain. This keeps heat down and fuel burn lower. The prop is a gimmick IMHO.

@@speedomars Oh ok

@@speedomars Yeah, not even that good of a ramp appeal

The new four blade Hartzel for the Cirrus (optional) is one knot speed improvement and a 5% climb improvement over the standard three-blade propeller.

They're becoming like Iphones...One small upgrade is marketed as an entirely new product and then they convince everyone they have to upgrade.

Any Cirrus owner can upgrade with the new prop. The main upgrade is the faster processor in the Nxi, the app and the position lighting.

I would buy the vision jet

The fixed gear is a 2kts penalty. But retractabale can add 50% to your insurance costs. Not needed. Or wanted.

As someone why also loves retracts, the Cirrus has good reason for keeping their gear fixed. Look at how aerodynamic it is, compared to something like a Bonanza, yet, the Cirrus is faster with less horsepower. Not having retracts saves weight, and a whole lot of money in training, insurance, and maintenance. Read "Free Flight" if you're interested in why Cirrus made the design choices it made.

@@mitchellphillips7086 Good points. Carbon fiber has proven it's merits by now...but there are other fixed gear designs. And there are classes of aircraft that cannot avoid retractable gear, like a light or heavier jet. Also jetprops need them as their cruising speeds are far higher than anything in the piston classes.

PIGGIES bruh it’s $2.8 million the G6 is under or just over a million

The split wing was added between the G2 and G3. The gross weight was hiked to 3600lbs and the fifth seat position in the G5. Avionics are drastically improved from the older models to the new.

Glider pilot over here not sure what oil temp is

@@christopherbernhardt i guess they mean blood temp lol

The round gauge guys are often stubborn and defensive about glass, even after 30 years now.

@@christopherbernhardt Nor traveling more than an hour from your home airport.

nailed it.. the organized crime known as government has stolen all the value.. the plane is still the price of a decent car.. about 875K of that goes to the government gang!

@Pete is never wrong Its made of fibreglass and has a very basic interior. 90% of the value is in liability and certification. Perhaps not quite 25k. Bit close. Hence the death of GA. Believe it or not, i do know there are other options, seeing as I literally work in light aircraft sales.

Cirrus is the SOLE reason GA continues. They sell more than all the others combined in piston singles...and they own the VLJ market all alone.

@@gbigsangle3044 Citation Mustangs and Eclipse's are selling well too, I've dealt with a few. Cirrus are not the "sole" reason GA is alive. GA is alive because of 50 year old airframes being flown by those of us who love what we do. Cirrus pricing is ludicrous, they lose their value mentally fast too. We need companies providing good, 4 seater options that are comfortable and safe, and not priced at almost the same cost as a small jet.

@@smokingspitfire1197 In late November 2009 Eclipse Aviation filed for bankruptcy, and investors, suppliers, Eclipse 500 owners and order holders lost well over $1 billion. You talking about ONE Aviation? They havn't sold any planes yet.

Agree, 100%...If you have that kind of money to burn on a G6, get a used turbine.

@@JohnHandles until your turbine needs an overhaul though. They're a lot more expensive even though they have longer overhaul intervals.

The Nxi is faster than the G1000 but still largely the same panel. The pistons have the same A/P as the jet has, the reason the pistons wont see autoland is because they will never get autothrottles.

That "app" requires hardware on the plane that can reciprocate, communicate, and ultimately respond to hardware/software queries... = platform

The menace in non-towered fields are the SLOW LSA, Cessnas and Pipers and especially ones without a radio.

Andre Cavalcanti The Piper M350 is better for a 6 seater

@@qtclad3336 I do agree with you. The fact is that all 6 seaters are such old (but proven, for sure) projects, like the Piper, the Bonanza, the Stationair. I'd love to see a new project from a innovative company like Cirrus.

The Cirrus 6 (2 small jump seats also possible to make 8) is the SF50 Vision Jet.

When they can figure out how to charge 2.5 million for it but only spend about 100k making it, but then market it as the "forefront of GA" and a "revolutionary idea" while simultaneously causing immense damage to general aviation as they incentivise price hikes across the entire industry so that no average person can afford to fly anymore.

@@smokingspitfire1197 You are out in the weeds and obviously are not an aircraft owner. It takes 6 months to get a Cirrus after the order...they send progress photos of it going thru the factory to the customer. Then you fly to TN now to pickup your plane (and get transitioned trained) and fly it home. The tech and the manufacturing that go into a Cirrus is at very high levels..the avionics alone costs $150k.

Or a Cessna 152

Cirrus sells thousands of these planes a year compared to the dozen Malibus or King Airs. And oh yea. the King Air is a TOTALLY different idea and niche.

You and all the rest of us lol

Generally you fly with your left hand on a yoke anyway. The throttle is always on the right. You get quite used To it

Jim Barr Official an 08 Eclipse all the way to Fl410... for about the same as a g6

The top price piston SR22T is $980k. A similarly loaded SF50 Vision Jet is $2.3m

The SR22 (non turbo) G6 is $850k or so, 100LL, 180ktas max cruise. The SR22T is $980k, 100LL, 210ktas max cruise.

The SF50 is alone in it's niche and the lowest priced jet you can buy. It also has a chute. and autoland.

Tell that to the over 1000 new Cirrus customers each year buying these piston singles. And the addition 200 a year buying the Vision Jet.

@@gbigsangle3044 That's precisely my point and that's presicely what I am saying

Not so much a noise reduction as a slight improvement, 5% in climb performance.

It’s a SR20.

Not SR22 that swiss flys,

I’m pretty sure 700k-1m or so.

Я тоже)

Nope, lowering pilot workload is ALWAYS better and results in safer flying.

If that were the case, then jumbo jets would be much more dangerous than general aviation aircraft, seeing as they have a lot more automation and technology for the pilots.

@@landonp629 Boeing max crashes, need I say more

@@breadkrumbs2515 That was bad, rushed design and neglect on behalf of Boeing to train the pilots in the use of the anti-dive system. Jet airliners have been ran by more computers and auto-pilots for longer than any Cirrus could ever dream of, yet short of errors made one one plane, jet airliners are MUCH safer than general aviation planes - the numbers speak for themselves. It's rarely the technology that is the problem, its the pilots lack of knowledge about the technology. Frankly, The pilot, as long as he or she knows how to operate the technology, can spend more time monitoring systems and ensuring safety if they are not constantly eyeing 6 gauges and trying to keep a plane within 3 axis of movement. It's very easy in an older general aviation plane to get overwhelmed, and overwhelmed pilots can spell a disaster.

Pilots use the tech to lessen the load and fly more safely. If you were a pilot you would understand how it works.

Mine is Mantis Green.

No thanks cesna sucks

Cessna does not offer a plane competitive with or with the same mission and features as the SR line.
