Cirrus Design Corp SR22 GTS N661RA Passes Through Rockhampton Airport

A nice arrival into Rockhampton Airport late on Friday 31 October was the Cirrus Design Corp's own SR22 GTS demonstrator N661RA.

Information suggest that the sleek little Cirrus has spent recent days operating in and around Northern New South Wales and the Gold Coast.  On Friday, it flew into Rocky from the Gold Coast and earlier, Ballina / Byron Gateway Airport.

After a quick look over the aircraft by Rockhampton Aero Club secretary Paul T, N661RA departed for Cairns where it will be on display with the North Queensland Aero Club at both Cairns and Mareeba.

Of interest, another Cirrus demonstation aircraft - Generation 5 Cirrus SR22T VH-YDA - also visited the Rockhampton Aero Club in June 2013 also on a display flight by the Cirrus Design Corporation.

Thanks to Paul Tyler from the Rockhampton Aero Club for allowing us to share these great photos!
