So do those flying Cirrus have the required hood time waived and an
aren't taught to do a 180 in IMC?

Obviously a climbing 180 would have been in order.

Maybe to you, I wasn't in the plane. You have no idea what happened.
Maybe he was having chest pains from the stress of the flight. Maybe
the g1000 (if equipped) just went blue screen.
What we are trying to point out is we were not there the PIC made the
decision and he is still alive so who can question that.

With all those maybes let's add another maybe he didn't pull the chute and
it just shot out by itself.

I think the point of this and all other topics like it is to discuss what we
do know and try to learn from it. If we limit the discussion to only things
we are 100% certain of this is going to be a very quiet newsgroup. For there
to be any meaningful dialogue here we have to assume that the information we
do have is correct. When we find that it isn't or are given new information
we can adjust our comments accordingly.
