Cirrus Vision Jet (SF50 G2+)
Very Light Jet - 5 passengers, 1,275 nm published range
About the Cirrus Vision Jet (SF50 G2+)
The Cirrus Vision Jet SF50 G2+ is the world's first single-engine, single-pilot-certified personal jet, built on the same carbon-fiber airframe lineage as Cirrus's SR-series piston aircraft. It trades outright speed and range for a uniquely accessible, owner-flown jet experience with the largest cabin in the very-light-jet class.
Who charters it
Charter and jet-card clients pick the Vision Jet for short regional hops (under 2.5 hours) where cost matters more than speed, and for its unmatched safety story (CAPS whole-airframe parachute plus Safe Return autoland) when flying with nervous first-time flyers or families.
Mission fit: the Cirrus Vision Jet (SF50 G2+) at a glance
Best for
- Regional legs up to about 650 nm with four aboard, after reserves and headwind
- Small parties of up to 5
- Shorter runways, with a published takeoff distance of about 1,900 ft
Think twice if
- Denver to either coast with four aboard: plan on a fuel stop
- Standing room matters: the cabin is about 4'1" tall
- A full cabin with skis or golf bags: baggage space is about 30 cu ft
Mountain airports
Not suited. Not a fit for Colorado's mountain fields. We would plan a different aircraft for Aspen, Eagle or Telluride.
Computed from specifications current as of 2026-09-28. Range lines start from the 950 nm four-passenger figure, hold back a reserve and fly into a 50 kt headwind. Winds, weight and the operator's own performance numbers decide any given day. Check your route in the Range Explorer.

Colorado mountain airports: unsuitable
The SF50 has very short field numbers and the G2 improved hot-and-high takeoff power, so it could technically use EGE, ASE, and even TEX runways, but it is not a realistic charter product for this market: Part 135 charter capacity for the type is essentially nonexistent, most SF50s are owner-flown, and being single-engine makes it an unlikely fit for broker-booked mountain charter work over the Rockies. Treat it as an owner-operator aircraft, not a bookable mountain charter type.
Planning guidance only. The operator, the AFM performance data, and conditions on the day are the final authority.
