On a climb out like this (Vx may be 85), you
have only few seconds to lower the nose and prepare for a crash landing

in front of you. Otherise, stall and spin.

So, if you don't lower the nose immediately the plane will
*automatically* stall and spin? I doubt it, seeing as the stall would
have to be uncoordinated and the Cirrus has wing cuffs to make it
spin-resistant and keep the ailerons flying through the stall.

I went on a 1 hour CFI demo in a SR22-GTS last summer and was
thoroughly impressed with the plane. I discussed the plane's accident
history witht the demo pilot and his take (like most I think) is that
it's generally unfamiliarity with the plane aggravated by
low-time/inexperienced pilots that's been the root of most of these
accidents. With such little drag the plane shoud glide quite well
although at a higher speed than other GA singles.
