The airplane
Why start in a Cirrus?
The SR20 is a four-seat airplane for instructor-led discovery, suitable training and continued proficiency. See the live aircraft record for equipment and status.
Modern glass-panel cockpit
Two large displays instead of a wall of dials — easier to understand on your very first flight.
Comfortable four-seat cabin
A four-seat cabin and visibility from the left seat. Discovery flights are one student with an instructor.
Whole-airframe CAPS parachute
The SR20 carries a whole-airframe parachute system as an additional layer of safety equipment. No aircraft is risk-free, and your CFI will explain how CAPS fits into how we operate.
Stable cross-country platform
The same airplane members fly on real trips out of the Metroplex, not just around the pattern.
Keep training in the same airplane
If you continue, you can keep flying this exact type of aircraft at A4Flight.
