Larry, you seem to be bashing the Cirrus with "Yet Another Cirrus
SR22 Crash", but have you checked NTSB for 2007 fatal crashes with a
Cirrus? Only two this year, and first one was a ditching in the ocean
(not sure why he did not use the chute there).

And no, I'm not a Cirrus pilot (30 minutes total in one), but they
have done great in 2007. As Mr. Collins pointed out in one of his
articles, take a look at flightaware and see how they are the most
popular GA aircraft in the IFR system today. Speaks well for Cirrus
in 2007.

btw, most of my time is in a A36, looking at the track record for
them this year has average, but when you throw in a loss of a family
friend that lost his life in a A36 crash this year..... the Cirrus
is looking better then the past few years.

Alan.



As soon as somebody writes an article about how safe the Cirrus is he
will be more than happy to copy and paste it here.



"The Cirrus is safe"


There you go.
