Default Lancaster California: Another Fatal Cirrus Crash

Please check my previous post (in the same topic) for more detail..
The egine quited when turned crosswind after several touch and goes in
a very hot day and he was low and was on training..... unlike my
friend's SR22, his engine quited caused by vapor lock but he was high
and was close to a airport. That poor guys had probably missed a
window of few seconds in a very unforgiving airplane. The instructor
had no time to save the plane after it is too late.

RIP
