1 FEB 07: CIRRUS LAUNCHES SAFETY TOOL

CIRRUS has upgraded its Avidyne glass cockpit to show a three-page 'Risk Assessment Tool' every time the aircraft's engine is started. The new screens cover "a personal inventory before takeoff regarding limitations, weather, flight planning, passenger briefing, and readiness to fly".

Cirrus boss Alan Klapmeier told LOOP, "As a CIRRUS owner and pilot, I appreciate the friendly reminder to make sure that I am personally prepared to fly myself and my passengers safely to our destination."

The first new page features what Cirrus calls the 'Envelope of Safety'. "This graphic display simplifies a myriad of information critical to safe flight decisions. The weather and experience limitations are the same rigorous standards utilized by Cirrus for dispatching any flights whether sales, corporate, or personal."
