Todd Simmons, president of customer experience at Cirrus Aircraft, kicked off the OEM’s press conference at AERO 2023 with a kicky little tease. “I want to close this morning with truly an historic milestone and highlight at Cirrus Aircraft, but I’m going to save that til the very end.”

The milestone? Cirrus marks its 9,000th delivery of an SR-series airplane this year, and much as it did with the 7,000th delivery and 8,000th delivery, it has crafted a limited edition run of the SR series, with comprehensive owner packages and bespoke exterior and interior designs.
