The Cirrus SR Series G7+, the latest generation of the world’s best-selling, high-performance single-engine piston aircraft, is now approved by Transport Canada Civil Aviation. This milestone brings Canadian owners access to the latest innovations in safety and technology.
In addition to Safe Return™ Emergency Autoland and Automatic Database Updates through Cirrus IQ PRO™, the SR Series G7+ also incorporates Runway Occupancy Awareness and Smart Pitot Heat to both increase safety and reduce pilot workload.
Runway Occupancy Awareness leverages ADS-B traffic data to predict and alert pilots of potential runway incursions from nearby airborne aircraft or other aircraft on or approaching the runway. Visual and aural alerts are provided on the pilot’s primary flight display and 3D SafeTaxi™ map to maximize situational awareness, a safety feature that is especially useful at busy airports.
Pilot workload reduction features make flights smoother and more enjoyable! The SR Series G7+ adds Smart Pitot Heat which is enabled by systems integration through Perspective Touch+™ avionics. The system performs a self-test before every flight and automatically turns on or off in flight depending on outside air temperatures, making it one less system to manage. Both the Perspective Touch+™ avionics and Smart Pitot Heat aim to reduce pilot workload and automate the flying experience.
