 The beautiful Centennial Edition Cirrus SR22 on this month’s cover belongs to Myron Garfinkle, of Norwalk, CT, who made a detour on a trip bringing his son Matthew home from Hartwick College in Oneonta, NY, to pose for our cover shot. He took delivery of the Centennial edition after owning another SR22 for two years. Myron tours the country with his wife and two sons in the SR22. The family’s favorite trip to date was from Las Vegas to Martha’s Vineyard. “We basically decided every day where we wanted to go,” Myron said. “It was really, really cool.”
