Gwengler,

You're probably right. But the point is, this is not supposed to
happen to Cirrus airplanes!

Says who?

Because as soon as a pilot gets into
trouble he has the option to pull the chute and save the day. So, if
Cirrus and Cessnas have the same accident rates, it would be proof that
the parachute "rescue" system basically does not work or in other words
does not provide extra safety in real terms.

Maybe it is proof pilots don't work.
