The FAA officially awarded Cirrus Aircraft its type certificate for the $1.96 million, 300-kt. single-engine turbofan SF50 Vision Jet at the National Business Aviation Association annual convention. The approval comes after an intensive four-year development program. The Vision Jet is powered by a 1,840-lb.-thrust Williams International FJ33-5A, and features a Perspective Touch flight deck powered by Garmin G3000 avionics.
FAA certification for Cirrus Aircraft’s new Vision Jet SF50 is imminent, the company said July 24 at a Cirrus customer event at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.
