If the SR20 stands for Single engine Reciprocating 200 horsepower aircraft, then why isn’t the SR22 a SR20 or SR31?

Does this just get chaulked up to the ilkes of jumbo shripm and miilitary intelligence?

Yup . . . and while you’re at it, let’s hope that Cirrus’s v3.0 or v4.0 is a ST60/6 . . . a 600hp Williams turboprop, cabin-class, six-placer that goes, oh, about 250 knots on 25gph! With NASA “highway in the sky” technology so that pea-soup IFR flying can be a done by idiots like me. Selling for under $500K. That’d be some traveling machine! Do it, Cirrus.
