A mere $100,000 will hold a delivery position on the new Cirrus seven passenger personal jet. The single engine concept jet will be able to land on grass strips and just like all other manufacturers Cirrus envisions a $1,000,000 price tag.  To date no one has built and delivered a very light jet in this price range.

Cirrus Design unveiled the mock-up of its single-engine V-tail jet, with seating for up to seven people, at a media reception at its Duluth, Minn. headquarters on Thursday.  The fuselage mounted Williams FJ33 turbofan is expected to provide a cruising speed of approximately 300 knots.  Just like all Cirrus designed aircraft a ballistic chute recovery system is available - the chute is in the nose and the straps tear up through the center division of the windshield.  Cirrus has been planning this jet for the last couple of years and if it’s like the rest of its fleet this aircraft will probably be a winner!
