Max interviews Chuck Price, who accompanied him on a recent trip to the Cirrus delivery center in Knoxville, TN to pick up a new Cirrus SR22T for a buyer and then fly the aircraft back to California. Together they flew nearly 2,000 nautical miles in a day and a half as they dodged snow and ice on the return trip to San Jose, California.
And if you're interested in buying a new or a slightly used Cirrus, please contact me now so I can help you learn more about that process. And if you’re looking to buy a new aircraft, like the one I ferried back with Chuck, let me set up a free demo flight for you. I specialize in the Cirrus and work with people around the world.
