    I looove that last picture! Great! Always safe travels! I am an Airline pilot (currently on A350/380) and I absolutely love how the built the SR22 and how it revolutionized the whole GA-Business during the last 20 years. I must admit, the avionics of the SR22 impress me very much. It appears to me, you get more information much better presented than in any Airliner Cockpit I know. I hope to fly a Cirrus one day. Although I am (or better: my wife is) deeply concerned of that day: Because I know when this day finally comes, I might never want to get out of the Cirrus any more…Thanks for your great Vids! They are inspirational because they are made by an inspiring person! Keep going!
    All the best from Berlin

      @SlowAsianDriver OK, so I'm finally ready to watch the rest of your video. I'm still jealous but not as jealous as 2 years ago. I am ecstatic to tell you that today I purchased my very 1st airplane. It's an old C150, which I plan to use for 850 hrs of time building. Not a cirrus and as nice as yours, but it's MINE. Thought you'd appreciate knowing this.

    Meh whatever, you should have looked at what an “LX7” Lancair is capable of for the same price. Check out GA Evangelist interview new video with owner perspective. Jet performance at fraction of the cost. Not even the Pipistrel Panthera can hold a candle to an LX7. It’s all about time and range and the Cirrus isn’t that impressive unless your a cessna 152 pilot.

      Topicthndr, you are such a troll. Yes, the LX7 is a cool plane with impressive specs, but you could’ve mentioned that without being a total dick.
