Fleet Safety at Destinations Aviation

Where Advanced Aircraft Meet Relentless Attention to Detail

At Destinations Aviation, safety is more than a feature — it’s a culture. Whether you’re training in a Cirrus SR20, SR22, or the new SR Series G7, you’ll be flying one of the most safety-forward aircraft in general aviation, backed by rigorous maintenance protocols and a team committed to operational excellence.

Built-In Safety: The Cirrus Difference

Cirrus aircraft are known worldwide for being at the forefront of aviation safety. Every plane in our fleet is equipped with industry-leading technology designed to protect pilots, passengers, and people on the ground.

Standard Safety Systems Across Our Fleet:

CAPS® – Cirrus Airframe Parachute System A revolutionary whole-aircraft parachute designed to safely lower the aircraft in the event of an emergency. CAPS is standard on every aircraft in our fleet.

Electronic Stability & Protection (ESP) Automatically assists the pilot in maintaining stable flight — particularly useful in disorientation or distraction scenarios.

Garmin Perspective™ & Perspective Touch+™ Avionics High-resolution displays, synthetic vision, terrain alerts, traffic awareness, and automatic flight data logging all contribute to a safer cockpit.

COMING SOON: Safe Return™ Emergency Autoland (G7+) Available in our newest G7 models, this advanced system allows a passenger to press a single button and the aircraft will land itself — autonomously.

Integrated Angle of Attack Indicators, Stick Shakers, and Flap Overspeed Alerts Enhancing situational awareness and helping prevent stall-related incidents.

Maintenance That Exceeds Standards

Safety doesn’t stop at design — it’s a direct result of meticulous maintenance and operational standards. At Destinations, we follow a proactive, multi-point maintenance system that keeps our fleet in peak condition.

Our Maintenance Program Includes:
Factory-Approved Inspection Schedules All aircraft are maintained to or above Cirrus manufacturer standards and FAA regulations.

In-House & Partnered A&P Mechanics Certified Airframe and Powerplant technicians perform every inspection, service, and repair.

Pre-Flight Inspections Every aircraft undergoes thorough pre-flight and post-flight reviews. Any discrepancy, no matter how minor, is addressed immediately.

Maintenance Tracking Software Digital logbooks and up-to-date time tracking ensure no inspection or service is missed.

Modern Hangar Storage Our aircraft are stored in climate-controlled, hangared environments at both our Tulsa and Rogers locations, protecting them from the elements and reducing wear.
