About the Cirrus SR-22 Turbo

The Cirrus SR22T is the turbocharged variant of the world's best-selling single-engine piston aircraft, distinguished by its composite airframe, side-stick control, and the aviation industry's first standard whole-airframe parachute system. Introduced in 2006 as an evolution of the normally aspirated SR22, the Turbo model features a Continental TSIO-550-K engine producing 315 horsepower, enabling cruise speeds around 213 knots and service ceilings up to 25,000 feet, performance that rivals many light twins while maintaining single-engine simplicity. The SR22T's Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) has saved over 100 lives since the type's certification, fundamentally changing general aviation safety culture and making it a preferred platform for owner-flown cross-country travel and flight training at the high end of the piston market.

Its glass cockpit, air conditioning, and known-ice capability (in later G3 and beyond variants) brought jet-like comfort and utility to the piston single class. The type's combination of speed, safety systems, and modern avionics has made it dominant in the high-performance single-engine segment, with widespread adoption by private owners, flight schools, and even some commercial operators for specialized missions. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
