Prior to the SR22’s full Avidyne panel, this technology had only been available in commercial and multi-engine aircraft, or as separate components. Its multi-function display provided moving maps, communication, weather radar, and other data. The primary flight display showed basic instrument information like altitude and airspeed. In 2003, this Cirrus SR22, N266CD, became the first single-piston engine aircraft with a “glass panel”- fully integrated avionics via computer screens-to be FAA certified. The Cirrus series was a “clean sheet” design- new inside and out-the first in 50 years. In 2003, it added a full glass or computer-based Avidyne instrument panel to both designs. In 2001, Cirrus debuted the faster and improved SR22. With a parachute, better visibility, and an ergonomic interior design, it was safer and looked great. By 1999, Alan and his brother, Cirrus co-founder Dale Klapmeier, had created the Cirrus SR20.

Summary When Cirrus Aircraft co-founder Alan Klapmeier barely survived a midair collision in 1985, he vowed to put a parachute into all future Cirrus airplanes. Aircraft is equipped with a disarmed Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS).
