Cirrus Promotes Aviation Safety with New Annual Flight Review Course for Pilots

Available through Cirrus Approach™, the Cirrus SR Series Annual Flight Review Course helps pilots stay proficient and current while satisfying the FAA's biennial Flight Review requirement as Pilot in Command

DULUTH, Minn. & KNOXVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cirrus (Cirrus Aircraft Ltd.) announced its new SR Series Annual Flight Review Course, a Cirrus Approach™ module designed to promote continuous flight training, pilot proficiency, and safety for all pilots, including the thousands of SR20, SR22, and SR22T pilots worldwide, regardless of current aircraft ownership. The Annual Flight Review consists of three segments—online learning, ground instruction, and flight instruction with a Cirrus Standardized Instructor Pilot (CSIP), highlighting key focus areas such as stabilized approaches and go-arounds. The course is designed to be completed in a single half-day session with a CSIP and will be updated each year to cover the latest safety focus areas for pilots.

“Cirrus is dedicated to promoting continuous flight training as a lifestyle,” said Zean Nielsen, Chief Executive Officer of Cirrus. “By increasing instructional touchpoints beyond just those required, Cirrus is creating more opportunities for pilots to practice critical skills in a safe and structured environment and then apply them in flight.”

The SR Series Annual Flight Review Course is available for purchase through the Cirrus Approach portal or by contacting a Cirrus Training Center or CSIP. Completing this course with your CSIP satisfies the requirements of the FAA Flight Review (14 CFR Part 61.56) required every two years.

Cirrus continues to invest in a full breadth of training solutions, including digital products, a network of certified instructors and training centers, factory direct training, and our dedicated curriculum for a Cirrus type rating. The SR Series Annual Flight Review expands our digital product, Cirrus Approach, by adding a course to promote flight training and aviation safety for pilots.
