Thomas has a severe denial problem with the safety record of the Cirrus.

C,

Thomas has a severe denial problem with the safety record of the Cirrus.


That's because of me knowing Paul. Oh, no, sorry, wrong group. ;-)

No, but my BS detector went berserk, so I had to do something.

parachutes.

Probably quite a few aircraft that crashed without chutes too - just like
many people have died in auto accidents even though they were wearing their
seatbelts. A chute isn't a guarantee - just another safety device.

Heh-heh! I didn't notice that. No wonder the papers screwed up the facts.

BTW, If you want the e-ticket ride of the year, I'll be test-flying a
Cheyenne 400 next week.
