Cirrus Training Programs
Cirrus Training Made Simple. Advanced Capabilities Made Possible.
Train in the aircraft that changed personal aviation.
At National Flight Training Network, our Cirrus training programs are designed for busy professionals, entrepreneurs, and high-achievers who want the safest, most capable general aviation experience — without wasting time, money, or energy on slow, outdated training models.
Whether you dream of flying yourself to business meetings, weekend trips, family getaways, or cross-country adventures, Cirrus training at NFTN gives you the freedom to take control of your time — and your travel.
Why Train in Cirrus Aircraft?
Because time is your most valuable asset.
Airline delays, cancellations, multi-day business trips, missed moments — most pilots start their Cirrus journey because they’re tired of being stuck in the system. Cirrus training gives you options. NFTN makes the path simple, efficient, and designed around your schedule.
We train in modern SR20 and SR22 aircraft equipped with Cirrus Perspective+™ avionics and the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS®). You’ll learn in one of the safest, most advanced aircraft platforms ever built — with instructor expertise that turns complex systems into confidence.
Take back your time. Take back your freedom.
Learn to fly your own Cirrus.
