On Monday, July 22, revealed a brand-new limited edition SR series aircraft. This one-of-a-kind SR aircraft will be delivered as the 10,000th SR series aircraft. The unveiling of the limited edition aircraft came on the opening day of this year's exhibition and airshow, which takes place at Wittman Regional Airport (OSH) in Oshkosh, .
This exhibition is one of the largest aviation events in the world, and during the week-long event, Wittman Regional Airport becomes the busiest airport in the world. This year's event will last from July 22 through July 28. Over 7,500 SR22s have been built since its introduction.
As previously mentioned, the newly unveiled SR aircraft will commemorate the 10,000th aircraft in the family of airplanes. The family began in 1999, with the introduction of the Cirrus SR20. Since then, it has grown to include several upgraded variants of the SR20, as well as several variants of the newer SR22.
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Cirrus, Zean Nielsen, spoke about the 10,000th aircraft. Nielsen stated, "The SR Series has reached a monumental achievement with 10,000 deliveries and owners that live the Cirrus Life.
