Here at Havens Aero, we’re stoked to be having a great start to the 2023 flying season. There has already been a lot of Cirrusing around so far; looking forward to the next call! Long cross country’s, acceptance flights or ferry flying on short or advanced notice… give us a call!
This latest Cirrus SR22 ferry turned into a unique opportunity to help another pilot build some Cirrus time and get exposed to Mountain flying! With about 20 minutes notice, we talked Josh (a local CFI who want’s to get involved Cirrus ferry flying) into coming along for the adventure. It was a quick 11+ hours flown in just over a day but an awesome way to knock out some time; and I appreciated the company. While I’m not a CFI, it was great to share my experience in the SR22, talk over mountain flying techniques and demonstrate some aircraft performance techniques while operating from a high altitude airport!
Here are some images from this long single leg ferry flight to drop off Jim’s new to him Cirrus. Although this bird was pushing TBO, this was an extremely clean example of an early Cirrus and the engine was healthy and happy. Jim is looking forward to completing transition training and his IFR rating before overhaul. Then its time to tune up and enjoy this upgrade from his current SR20.
Fall 2022 has put Havens Aero to work shuttling around SR-20’s, 22’s and a 22T. Here are some images from the multiple aircraft flown, delivered and demonstrated!
Troy was looking for the perfect plane to start out his ownership career, finish his instrument training and explore the area… he couldn’t have made a better choice!
