The simplest way to fly current-generation Cirrus on your own schedule. A monthly membership, a member rate by the hour, and a hangar you can treat as home base.
Renting shouldn't feel like a rental counter, with a clipboard and an airplane you've never seen. Membership is a relationship: a fleet you know, a hangar that's yours, and a team that knows your name.
You join on the model, not a specific tail. A membership on the SR20, our five-seat everyday Cirrus, flies every SR20 in the fleet. A membership on the SR22T, the faster turbocharged one built for travel, flies every SR22T. You take whichever one is open when you want to go.
Whether you already fly or you're starting from zero, the path is the same.
You don't need a pilot's license to join. New to flying? Earn your certificate with us, we're a Cirrus training center. Already a pilot? A short check-out gets you current on the fleet.
Pick the level that matches how much you fly: Access, Horizon, or Premier. Not sure? We'll point you to whichever level costs you the least, even if that's a lower tier than you expected.
Reserve online and go. Members book ahead of non-members, so the airplane is there when you plan to fly it.
Every Cirrus we fly runs the same Garmin glass flight deck, from the SR20 to the SR22T. Learn it once and you know them all, so there's no relearning a new panel when you switch between airplanes.
We keep a line of current-generation (G7) Cirrus at Blue Grass Airport in two models, the SR20 and the SR22T. You join by model, and fly whichever one is open when you want to go.
A perfect, very capable stepping stone. Great for building skills, staying current, and weekend getaways, and an easy step up to the SR22T when you want more speed and range.
Turbocharged, with oxygen on board for high-altitude flight and the range to put a real destination inside a weekend.
Every Cirrus carries CAPS, the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System: a parachute for the whole airplane, standard on every one we fly.
kt = knots (about 1.15 mph) · nm = nautical miles · useful load = the people, bags, and fuel you can carry.
A monthly membership plus a member rate per hour, on every aircraft of your model. Without a membership, the walk-up rate is $425/hr on the SR20 and $645/hr on the SR22T. Every level flies for less per hour, so the monthly fee pays for itself after just a few hours a month.
Prices are per model, so you can join the SR20, the SR22T, or both. Membership runs 12 months. You can change levels free, anytime, and leaving early is two months' dues. No membership is needed to fly, either: anyone can book an open aircraft at the walk-up rate above, just behind members on the schedule.
Drag to how many hours you'd fly in a month, and we'll show which option costs the least.
Shows membership cost only, for same-day flying. Fuel is separate. Overnight trips carry a per-night minimum that your level lowers; see Trip Billing below.
One monthly fee covers both models, and you still pay each model's member hourly rate for the hours you fly. It's less than two separate memberships, and it's the plan most members choose.
Fly and come home the same day, and you pay for the hours you fly, nothing more. There's no monthly minimum and no fleet surcharges. On a multi-day trip the airplane stays with you and off the schedule for everyone else, so each night it is away has a minimum number of hours. You are billed the greater of that minimum or the hours you actually fly, so once you fly at least the minimum, there is nothing extra.
Say you take an SR22T on a 2-night trip as a Horizon member. That's a 3-hour minimum (1.5 hours for each of the 2 nights). Fly 6 hours on the trip and you simply pay for the 6 you flew, nothing extra. Fly only 2 hours and you're billed 3, since the airplane was yours both nights. Fly at or above the minimum and there's never anything added on.
This is the premium way to fly the newest Cirrus: priority, community, one team. It isn't the cheapest way to build hours, and we won't pretend it is.
Membership is a community, not just a rental. A few times a year, we all fly somewhere together.
It starts with a quick conversation about how you fly. Then we'll point you to the level that fits.
