| Main trade-off | Excellent high-altitude speed, but the turbo system adds heat, fuel burn and maintenance while useful payload is lower than the SR22. | Fast, refined and highly respected, but six seats are mainly a cabin-size claim once fuel and baggage are considered. | High-altitude airline-style training capability is excellent, but turbo heat, CAPS, FIKI and fleet wear create premium costs. |
A factual first pass. Mission, condition and configuration can outweigh a brochure advantage.
