"C J Campbell" wrote in message ... The occupants of a Cirrus can hope to "survive" a spin from 900 AGL How so, if the Cirrus cannot recover from a spin and the parachute needs more than 900 feet to deploy? OK, perhaps it is 920 feet; my point was that use of the BRS to "survive" a spin is hardly the same as "recovering" from a spin as we have always understood it. After a normal spin recovery in a normal airplane, there is typically no reason to ring up the insurance company. To respond to another point, the minimum BRS recovery altitude would also depend somewhat on density altitude. For example; given the same low AGL, you might not get the same happy results in Denver that you previously got in Miami. Vaughn
