Representatives of Aviation Occupant Safety (AOS) have announced that Cirrus Aircraft has selected the company’s inflatable three-point seat belts for the crew seating in the new Vision SF50 single-engine personal jet.

“The Cirrus Vision SF50 is going to usher in a new era of single-engine jet performance, safety and value,” stated Rick O’Quinn, AOS sales manager. “Cirrus has become synonymous with safety and we are excited and honored that they have selected our line of inflatable three-point seat belts for this exceptional aircraft.”

O’Quinn said that the AOS inflatable three-point seat belt system will be featured as standard equipment for the crew and front passenger seating locations.  AOS will provide its three-point conventional seat belt systems as standard equipment for the Vision SF50 passenger seating.

“Safety and innovation are core design principles at Cirrus Aircraft,” stated Rick Hollander, vice president of manufacturing and supply chain. “We selected the AOS inflatable and conventional three-point seat belt systems because they have proven to not only offer the best overall combination of safety and comfort for our pilots and passengers, but the added capabilities of the forward-facing airbag deployed from the lap belt makes a great safety-enhancing system that much better.”

 “In addition to today’s announcement, AOS monument mounted inflatable products were selected by another major Jet airframe OEM. AOS product line provides system solutions for crew members, side-facing cabin passengers as well as forward facing occupants,” O’Quinn said. “Having two outstanding aircraft manufacturers select our products for their newest aircraft is a true testament to the high-level of quality and safety-enhancing capabilities our occupant safety systems deliver.”
