The paper article noted that there was a succesful deployment on
another Cirrus in Texas 2 years ago. Perhaps you are hearing this
info as the same weekend. Apparently both incidents are the
respective firsts for each country. The Texas guy went down in Texas
after loosing a wing flap without injury. The article I found was in
the Edmonton Journal under thier 7 day archive menu for Apr.10. Any
search engine should give you thier website.


Loosing? LOOSING??? it's spelled LOSING fer cripe's sake!

I'm going to have to scream if I read "loosing" instead of "losing" one more
freaking time!

WHY is this so difficult?

Nope, it was the result of a maintenance error that resulting in the failure of
one of the ailerons. The pilot did not lose control of the aircraft but felt
that a controled landing would not be possible and elected to use the chute
instead.

That's legitimate it refers to the cat who ate the cheese and waited
with baited breath.
