About this aircraft
The Cirrus SR22 is the best-selling piston single of the modern era, and it has evolved a lot: early Avidyne-panel G1 and G2 airframes, the long-wing G3, the higher-gross G5, turbocharged SR22T models and today’s touchscreen G6/G7. CAPS procedures, fuel capacity, weights and avionics flows differ by generation, so build your checklist on a generic SR22 skeleton and tailor it to your serial number and panel.
Works for every Cirrus SR22 variant
Covers SR22, SR22T and every generation: G1, G2, G3, G4, G5, G6, G7 — Avidyne and Garmin Perspective panels.
