Bid to buy the Beechcraft was rigged?
The SR-22 has an 1150 pound useful load. That's four 166 pounders with
full fuel, or four 200 pounders with (a still respectable) 58 gallons on board. Its a space issue. Sitting in the back of an A36 is almost like sitting in the back of an airline. Sitting in the back of an SR22 is like sitting in the back of a VW bug. For non-GA people being shuttled around on business, it could make a big difference. -Robert

Isn't the insurance pretty out of sight on the Cirrus also? I figure the state will self insure, but even they play the odds when they figure costs. How do the operating costs compare, anyway?
