When it comes to civil aviation, the Jet Age began right around 1952. That's when the world's first commercial jetliner, the British de Havilland Comet, made its inaugural scheduled flight.

The Cirrus Vision Jet is nothing like the de Havilland Comet.

Sporting just a striking V-tail design, a sophisticated-yet-simple cockpit and room enough for five adults, the Vision Jet is a groundbreaking aircraft for a different reason: It's the first FAA-certified private jet with just a single engine.
