Second Conforming Cirrus Jet Joins Flight-test Fleet
Dubbed C1, the jet will be used for an “array of certification efforts,” including flight into known icing testing.
The second conforming Cirrus Vision SF50 jet single, dubbed “C-One” (C1), joined the flight-test fleet on November 25, achieved a 45-minute maiden flight after lifting off from Duluth International Airport at 3:30 p.m. CST. The all-composite, single-engine jet joins the first certification flight-test SF50, “C-Zero” (C0), which has logged nearly 150 flights and 220 hours since it began flying on March 24.
