What about electronics? Transitioning to electronics in a GA aircraft.....unpressurized aircraft....don't the avionics for the glass cockpit overheat?...or become degraded when baking in a parked aircraft? Just sayin.
Why? because at FL180 we can take advantage of picking levels between which have winds which change direction with altitude (due to the earth revolving) which can add sometimes another 50+ KTS of ground speed. I have hit over 230 KTS ground speed many times when conditions are right. This is only half of say a 737. Consider taking a 2 hour flight on United, you spend 2 hours on the ground just trying to get on and then off. Without the hassles I arrive at the same time sometimes less!
These planes aren't pressurized so why would you want to climb to the rated 18,000 and 20,000 feet they spoke in the video that the planes can climb to? Or is that just for informational purposes?
up there, you can avoid much of the weather and get good cruise speeds, especially with turbocharged aircraft. you can avoid the oxygen issues by using bottled oxygen (you'd usually run it though a tube under your nose, masks are uncommon), and the cabin heat takes care of colder air due to decreasing cabin air pressure. for longer legs, being able to climb up to FL200 is quite useful.
oops somebody already said that...

@mrfourtysevenman mabye because actualy 182's range from $200,000-$600,000 in price? and RC ones are only $50-$1000

@IIproductionsII not realy because the cessnas from the 70s are the exact same and cost 55,000

@thomasisawesome100 They aren't the exact same, updated avionics and cockpit, you wont get a 70s Cessna with a glass cockpit.

Nice but Cirrus is better and not because of the BRS (the parachute)
