Cirrus Sr20 G7 vs Cirrus Sr22 G6 vs Cirrus Sr22t G6 vs Cirrus Vision Jet G2 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Epic Aircraft E1000
The Cirrus SR22 G6 and SR22T G6 are high‑performance single‑engine piston aircraft, typically carrying four adults (up to five seats plus pilot depending on configuration). The SR22 is optimized for efficient cross‑country flying with a typical range around 1,000–1,200 nautical miles, while the turbocharged SR22T maintains stronger performance at altitude and often advertises roughly similar to slightly longer still‑air range (about 1,000+ nautical miles) with better high‑altitude capability. The Cirrus Vision Jet G2 is a single‑engine personal jet in the very light jet category, usually flown with one pilot and seating up to seven total (commonly five passengers plus pilot). Its range is about 1,200 nautical miles. The Daher TBM 960 is a high‑end single‑engine turboprop, generally seating up to six passengers plus pilot (typically six total), with long‑leg capability around 1,400–1,700 nautical miles. The Epic E1000 is a pressurized single‑engine turboprop in a similar class, typically seating up to six, with a range commonly cited around 1,300–1,650 nautical miles depending on configuration.
