My flight was BEFORE the accident (where one aileron was loose..). At the time of my visit/flight N200SR was the only flying prototype. The accident happened with one of the next, I think it was even the second prototype.
We were a group of five, buying two ‘20s back in 2002. I don’t recall the serial numbers.
I sold my share in 2006 when I emigrated and bought a DA42. Both aircraft live in Lelystad (EHLE) and are still going strong.
We all know they are not exactly overpowered, but still I have very fond memories of them.
What I liked the most about your picture, Aart, are the LightSpeed headsets. Not sure whether it is the XL or the 3G… I still have a 3G and used is regularly until I got 2 Bose.
It is sure fun to see a Cirrus with round gauges though.

There are still quite a few of them available on the used market even though from what I see on planecheck they are not really that much less expensive than the ones with the full Avidyne set. And in which case the choice would be pretty obvious.
