Aircraft Will Come With Turbos... AND A/C

PlaneSmart! Aviation of Dallas, TX and Cirrus Design Corporation announced Tuesday the completion of a previously announced multi-million dollar deal to replace its current fleet of Cirrus SR22-G2s with all new Turbo Cirrus SR22-G3s.

As ANN E-I-C Jim Campbell recently expounded on in his extensive flight test, the new Cirrus SR22-G3 (or "Generation Three") is a result of over 700 refinements over its predecessor, the SR22-G2.

The "basic" G3 is sweet enough... but PlaneSmart!'s new SR22-G3s will arrive from the factory with virtually every option Cirrus offers, including factory installed air-conditioning and a new turbo-normalized engine which can maintain almost 100% power all the way to the certified ceiling of 25,000'.

"PlaneSmart! customers are excited about the arrival of their new and more capable aircraft" said Jeffery A. Cullen, PlaneSmart!'s President and co-founder. "In addition to the enhanced capabilities associated with the turbo-charged aircraft, the new airplanes offer the perfect combination of performance, navigation and safety features that satisfy PlaneSmart!'s objective of offering the best fractional aircraft ownership experience available to our customers. The new aircraft also positions us well with a platform suited for growth as we continue expanding into additional markets."

All of PlaneSmart!'s aircraft will be identically equipped for continuity and ease of operation for clients.

"Obviously we are pleased to have a customer like PlaneSmart! choose Cirrus products to pass along to our joint customers" Cirrus CEO and Chairman Alan Klapmeier remarked after completing the transaction with PlaneSmart! "Their dedication to providing top-of-the-line products and services to customers though a fractional share program is impressive."
