Piston charter model aims to get people off the road
The Cirrus SR22 has been the world’s best selling single-engine aircraft for five years, with more than 3,000 sold to date.

The Cirrus SR22 has been the world’s best selling single-engine aircraft for five years, with more than 3,000 sold to date. But the thought of using the SR22 for charter services is still relatively new.

“It’s really the most cost-effective airplane we could offer,” said James Cooper, co-owner of Open Air. An average trip costs between $400 and $500 per hour.
Current business jet owners also use the SR22 because the airplane can land at airports with 2,500-foot runways, which allows the airplanes to reach more U.S. airports, according to SATSair CEO Steve Hanvey.
