Had one of these fly over me late this afternoon while being drug by the dog.
Thought it was a Citation Jet till it was far enough away to see the V-tail.

Some interesting features
The combination of the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System® (CAPS®) and Safe Return™ emergency autoland provides the ultimate level of safety and assurance - exclusively available in the Vision Jet.
When all else fails, read the instructions.
