I think more likely the money behind Cirrus bought another company and is merging the two of them. e.g. Epic, Kestrel, Mooney, HBC ( :tape: )....


Buy Kestrel and Bring Alan K. back would be nice too..

The fact that we are 'buzzing' about this is proof that their campaign already worked.

I got a flyer from Cirrus in the mail yesterday. I suppose their mail room might have sent it out prematurely. Stop reading now if you want to wait for the official announcement...




Seating for 5!
That's right. A 60/40 split in the rear seat providing room for 5. There's even a 10# increase in useful load so that your passenger can bring along some luggage.

Let's see - 8# baby, couple of small milk bottles, couple of diapers - we're good.
Oh crap! How much does that car seat weigh?

Say what you will. I gave a BFR in an '02 model yesterday and it is a damn nice airplane.

Why do I now have the after taste of Moo Goo Gai Pan in my mouth?

You've got to give it to them; they are marketing, while others are just hanging on.

No doubt.

The Cirrus sales guys were on my buddy like white on rice. All other brands were nowhere to be found.

So he bought an SR22 for $750k. I shook my head but with the level of service, I'd have made the same decision. It's a nice plane and absolutely loaded with avioncs, flir and tks.
