skkm Had just arrived from the States a little over 2 weeks ago. Very lucky the donk didn't quit then instead!
So it FIRST arrived 2 weeks ago or it happened to fly back to the US some time between when I photographed this exact aircraft at the Tyabb airshow on 9th March 2014 and this weekend?
This is a Carbon model and a very expensive one or at least it was !
For the record skkm, new Cirrus are usually shipped to the dealers via sea container these days. The earlier generations including the early model glass versions circa 2004 were all flown here on their own wings as the early fuselage did not allow the wing to be detached or at least not seperately.
