A 2001 Cirrus SR22 G1 is the featured AircraftForSale top pick. The daily selection highlights aircraft chosen for being distinctive, well priced, or otherwise notable.

The SR22 G1 arrived in 2001 and set a new benchmark for personal transportation aircraft, according to the listing. It standardized the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System, swapped conventional yokes for sidesticks, and put an emphasis on automotive-style cabin ergonomics. Fast cross-country cruising combined with advanced safety equipment established a template that later owner-flown, single-engine designs followed.

This example has 2,840 hours on the airframe since new and is described as damage-free. The exterior is white with mountain green and silver striping. Useful load is 1,122 pounds.

The cabin has beige leather seating and Bose ANR jacks. The doors swing upward.

Power comes from a 310 hp Continental IO-550-N rebuilt at the factory in 2020, with about 650 hours since that work. It has a six-point engine mount and drives a Hartzell three-blade propeller, which also shows 650 hours since overhaul. Other firewall-forward items include an Airwolf oil separator and a chrome spinner.
