We just have to share with you what we see in the Cirrus
SR20 design.
The company had brought
a full size model of the plane to the show. They had a working version
of the plane at the airport, so people could try a test flight. Seeing
the model at the Expo, encouraged us to look at it as a scupture. |
|
|
No matter where we chose to stand and look we found beautiful
curves that flowed around the dophinesque shape.
Swimming through the air with the skill and joy of a dophin is an
appealing concept!
|
Even looking at isolated
areas revealed treasures of shape. |
|
|
The Cirrus's wings
curve up with a shape as elegant as any eagle's wing tip. These
photos can't begin to do justice, even when we have both this front
view.....
|
|
.....and this back
view. The play of light and shadow over the surface that reveals
the elegant shapes and the perfection of their curves doesn't translate
to a still photo. |
Notice the rear window.
There is a safety reason behind that. Inside, under the window is
a parachutte that is deployed by a rocket that blasts out the window.
If you are dead in the air -- push the button -- and float down safely! |
|
|
The flow of the shape
are entrancing from back to front. Notice how the curve ofthe tail
to the body retains it's esthetic energy as the view point shifts
more to a side view. |
|
|
|
The wing against the body of the plane makes a universally beautiful
S curve. The organic shaping of the entire plane makes it an object
that meets everyones' standard of beauty.
