Not that my opinion matters, since I don't plan on buying a Cirrus,
but I
think they missed the mark, when they went with the side stick. I
know all
of the advantages, but they just don't outweigh the disadvantage of
lack of
flexibility, IMHO.


Agree. I find side sticks gimicky and awkward. Much rather have a
center stick or yoke, although I will grant that a side stick may have
crash safety advantages.
