That is apparently what cost Astronaut Gorden Fullerton his life, when
he was testflying a Cirrus.

That will come as a surprise to him. :-) You're thinking of
Bob Overmyer, but he was killed in a VK-30, which was a completely
different airplane, a kit put out by Cirrus before they certificated
the SR series. Fullterton is still alive, BTW.
