Get Ready Cirrus Ramping Up Production


If you are just starting out with the thought of becoming a pilot, the article below may scare you just a little, when it comes to the cost of a quality aircraft.  Maybe you just don’t have quite enough money saved up to purchase your own aircraft yet.  However, here at Independence Aviation we understand and offer quality Cirrus airplane rental Denver based options.  Don’t let not owning an airplane get in the way of your love to fly.

Cirrus Ramping Up Production

Cirrus Aircraft is flying high, announcing here at AirVenture that it has ramped up production of its SR piston aircraft to eight per week and increased output of its new SF50 Vision jet to one per week.

Cirrus obtained FAA certification for the single-engine Vision Jet last October and to date has delivered seven. Pat Waddick, Cirrus president of innovation and operations, said the slow delivery rate was deliberate and necessary to mature production processes. “We'd love to put a lot of airplanes out there, but the production has got to be stable. Sometimes you have to slow down to speed up. Right now airplanes fly out very smoothly. Methodically going through the process ultimately gets us to the higher [production] rate at the quality level and efficiency that we want. We don't go by calendar targets. We're focused on showing stability at the rate we set out, and [if we] are ready to move on to the next step. Is the quality level where we want it and is the customer experience where we want it?” he said. Waddick said Cirrus intends to bump jet production to two per week by early next year. Cirrus has orders for more than 600 Vision Jets.  Read More …..
