Capt.Doug,

regarding your subject line: The parachute is not meant to do that. The
pilot is.

That explains why so many people have died in Cirrus aircraft. Thanks for
the explanation. Is the parachute for show?

Does anyone have any hours flown / accident stats? Is there any particular
problem with Cirrus that makes it less safe than any other like GA plane?
