I had heard about the Cirrus SR22 from a few general aviation pilots I've come to know but really had never been introduced to it. Like most pilots, I learned to fly in both the Cessna and Piper made aircrafts.

These were clunky old machines that have flown hundreds of thousands of hours around the same training schools. Most private pilots like myself have never given the opportunity to find out what it's like to fly in one of the less prehistoric flying machines.

Now let me introduce you to the Cirrus SR22 which has a cruising speed of 182 knots, and, with a properly leaned engine, can travel over 1000 nautical miles. This modern low wing aircraft is equipped with some of the latest technological advancements in avionics today including the ability to track your path by GPS satellite.

Its side stick controls mean you no longer have a bulky control stick or yoke between your legs, so there is more room within the cockpit for map folding.

Onboard the aircraft there are so many technologies all working to improve your situational awareness, that you're kept safe in the knowledge you'll never get lost.

This aircraft really is the "BMW" of the general aviation aircraft in New Zealand and is perfect for the budding business man who is always flying between offices located around the country.

Its ability to land at most of the short fields around New Zealand means you are a quick skip away from being able to fly in, do your business and fly home without having to wait for scheduled flights.

This is a huge bonus for someone who is always on the go.
