We Fly: Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet

We put the Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet, the world’s first single-engine personal jet, to the test on a real-world trip. Does the little jet live up to the hype? Cirrus

Key Takeaways:

  • The Cirrus Vision Jet (SF50) carves a unique niche, offering a $2 million price point, superior fuel efficiency, and affordability compared to other light jets and turboprops.
  • Designed for owner-flown pilots, it features familiar controls for those transitioning from SR22 models and is notable as the first turbine aircraft equipped with a full-airframe parachute.
  • Despite its small jet classification, it boasts a surprisingly comfortable and spacious cabin for seven, delivers solid cruising performance (e.g., 300 ktas at FL280), and integrates advanced avionics and technology for an enhanced pilot experience.

The Cirrus Vision Jet is one of those rare airplanes that doesn’t fit neatly into any established category. Priced at around $2 million, it burns half the fuel of light jets that cost twice as much, and sells for less than even single-engine turboprops that don’t fly as high or as fast.
