About the Cirrus Aircraft SR20

The Cirrus SR20 revolutionized general aviation when it entered production in 1999 as the first certified aircraft with an integrated whole-airframe parachute system — the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) — designed to lower the entire aircraft and occupants safely to the ground in an emergency. Built by Cirrus Aircraft in Duluth, Minnesota, the SR20 is a four-seat composite single-engine piston aircraft powered by a Continental IO-360 producing 200 horsepower, offering a cruise speed around 155 knots and a range of approximately 800 nautical miles. Its side-stick control, glass cockpit (Avidyne Entegra or Garmin Perspective avionics), and modern safety features made it a landmark design that challenged the decades-old Cessna and Piper training fleet paradigm.

The SR20 became the best-selling four-seat aircraft in its class and served as the foundation for the higher-performance SR22, which shares the same airframe and safety philosophy. With a service ceiling of 17,500 feet and a maximum takeoff weight of 3,050 pounds, the SR20 occupies the light end of Cirrus's product line, popular with flight schools, owner-pilots, and as a trainer for transition to the SR22. Its stall speeds — 57 knots in landing configuration and 65 knots clean — and never-exceed speed of 200 knots define a forgiving yet capable envelope for both training and personal cross-country flying.

SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators over routes, with the largest observed operator.
