Gusting at up to 20 kts? That shouldn't have been much of a problem.

I haven't flown a Cirrus, so I have no idea how it handles in a
crosswind.

I know what you mean, but it seems an unlikely factor unless it was about
a 90º crosswind (in which case it might have been a questionable decision
to land).

Another unfortunate loss, and it saddens me that the kids were
victims in this accident.

I guess one of the drawbacks of low-wing aircraft is the inability to
open the cabin doors if it is flipped inverted. And the ballistic
parachute system may be a liability in that situation also.

Excellent point. The more situations like these I hear about, the less
sense a ballistic parachute system makes to me.
