The Cirrus SR-20 is a composite four-seat airplane that is best known for a unique safety feature designed to safely bring down its passengers should a midair collision or any other disaster occur that renders the plane untenable for flight—the airframe parachute. This well thought out feature is capable of safely bringing to ground level the plane and its passengers. The SR-20 seats four adults and one child and is powered by a 200hp, six-cylinder fuel-injected Continental engine that has a cruise speed of 150-155 knots. This light aircraft is highly fuel efficient at 12 gallons an hour. For slightly more than $300,000, you get to own this remarkable plane that comes complete with synthetic vision, Garmin G1000 glass cockpit, Garmin autopilot complete with a flight director, on-screen approach plates; satellite weather and basic terrain warning.
If you are still far away from getting your pilot’s license or even raising the $300,000, you can still get a feel of the plane through Pro flight simulator. This home flight simulator game is among the best in its class. Apart from offering you a wide range of planes, gliders and helicopters to choose from, this flight simulator will provide you with an experience that you will have a hard time telling apart from the real thing. The SR-20 is among 20 planes specifically covered by the Proflight Simulator.
The Garmin G1000 glass cockpit looks exactly like the real thing. The cockpit is full of trademark Cirrus avionics which gives you a good feel of the real fully-integrated aircraft. There are flying instruments, gauges, switches and knobs. The best flight Sim for the Cirrus SR-20 has two flying mode. These are the full view and cockpit modes. You can opt to fly the plane from the outside using this home flight simulator and get a stunning view of the plane and the ground scenery below or fly it using the cockpit mode and get a more realistic flying experience.
The pro flight simulator is considered to be the best flight Sim in the business due to its huge airport selections. There are small and short runways suitable for the Cirrus SR-20 as well as huge airports that can accommodate a 747. The airports are complete with hangars and runways looking just like they do in real life. Perhaps the vivid scenery offered to virtual pilots of the Cirrus SR-20 by the simulator is the best feature yet of this simulator. You get to fly over oceans, mountains and deserts. You can also change the weather settings to cruise through cold snowy weather as well as rainy and warm sunny days.
