Description
2001 Cirrus SR20 – Only 770 Hours SNEW, Two Owners, CAPS Replaced 2023, Dual Garmin 430s.
Exceptional 2001 Cirrus SR20 (N226CD) with just 770 hours total time since new, offering a rare combination of exceptionally low utilization, long-term family ownership, and thoughtful care. Owned by the same family since 2003, this two-owner aircraft has been used exclusively for personal pleasure flying and consistently stored in a heated hangar in northern Illinois. Its attractive exterior, well-preserved leather interior, and established ownership history make it a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a low-time, four-place Cirrus at an approachable price point.
Performance & Equipment
Powered by a 200 HP Continental IO-360-ES fuel-injected engine paired with a three-blade Hartzell constant-speed propeller. A Reiff engine preheating system with cylinder band and oil pan heaters provides added convenience for cold-weather operations. The SR20's responsive handling, side-stick flight controls, and comfortable cabin make it well suited for recreational flying and personal cross-country travel.
Avionics & Navigation
Equipped with dual Garmin GNS 430 GPS/NAV/COM navigators, S-TEC System 55 autopilot, Garmin GMA 340 audio panel, GTX 327 transponder, ARNAV ICDS 2000 multifunction display, and WX-500 Stormscope lightning detection system. Additional features include ADS-B Out capability and traditional IFR flight instrumentation, providing a familiar and functional cockpit configuration.
Safety & Maintenance
Features the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS), with the parachute replaced October 23, 2023, and the next replacement scheduled for 2033. The most recent annual inspection was completed March 3, 2026, with all applicable Airworthiness Directives reported as complied with. The aircraft was last flown in October 2026.
Exterior & Interior
Finished in classic white with burgundy and black accent striping, complemented by an inviting four-place cabin featuring two-tone ivory and gray leather upholstery, embroidered Cirrus seatbacks, coordinated interior trim, and four-point front-seat restraint harnesses. The overall presentation reflects a clean, attractive aircraft with timeless Cirrus styling.
N226CD is located at Lake in the Hills Airport (3CK), Illinois, northwest of Chicago. An appealing opportunity to acquire an exceptionally low-time SR20 with long-term ownership continuity, a recently replaced CAPS parachute, and a practical IFR avionics package.
