Cirrus Rolls Out 7,000th Commemorative Edition SR22
It’s hard to believe Cirrus has delivered 7,000 piston airplanes since the first SR20 rolled out of the factory in 1999, but that’s precisely the milestone the manufacturer has reached as it puts the finishing touches on the last of seven very special 7,000th Commemorative Edition SR22s built at the factory in Duluth, Minnesota.
I was fortunate to get the opportunity to fly one of these distinct airplanes with Ivy McIver, Cirrus SR product line manager, from my home airport, Morristown Municipal in New Jersey, to Cape Cod, Massachusetts, on a cold and windy late winter day in March.
