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?

The split seat was announced before their no-show at Sun-n-Fun! Once again, I'm late to the party.

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.
