Marketing and the Cirrus Sales Pitch

I think the BRS is more for the non-pilot. The wife, friends wife thats
afraid to fly and so on. Just my thoughts.

If they looked at the numbers they might change their minds, but often
rationality has nothing to do with it (especially if they are
excessively worried in the first place).

I had many friends say I should of bought the Cirrus because of the chute. I
actually looked at a used one and was going to buy it until I got the
insurance quote. 10K a year. I was actually a litttle intimitated by the
plane at first.
I think its a great plane, but at this point if I was considering a new
plane I would go A36.

Is the A36 still in production? I thought it had been replaced
recently by a very similar but somewhat updated model.

G36 replaced the A36. The only real difference is the new Garmin 1000
glass panel. Similarly, the B58 Baron is now the G58 Baron with the
same panel.

Can you get these aircraft without the glass panel? The last thing
I'd want is a Garmin 1000.

Not to worry... on your income, it's a non-issue.

That doesn't answer the question. Can these aircraft still be had
without the PC clone in the cockpit?

I think the G1000 has become standard equipment on both planes now

But can you get them without the G1000, with more reliable avionics?
