As two Cirrus Aircraft products – the latest iterations of the U.S. airframer’s piston and jet-powered lines - make their debut at Aero Friedrichshafen, the company sees continuing strong demand within the European market. This includes the single-engine piston SR Series G7+ and the SF50 G3 Vision Jet, the latter expecting EASA type certification later this year.

Acknowledging the ongoing headaches of tariff uncertainty and fuel price volatility, “even if we assume that some of them will be headwinds and some of them will be tailwinds, we believe our investment will pay off,” Cirrus v-p of international sales Boni Caldeira told AIN. Europe currently accounts for around 10% of Cirrus’ total fleet, a figure stable in recent years, even if ongoing growth worldwide means the U.S. may win a few percentage points back.
