Not again. That statement is false and you know it.
You might want to talk to Cirrus and help them correct their manuals then, because the Pilot Operating Handbook for the SR-22 says that the only method of spin recovery is activating the CAPS (Cirrus Airframe Parachute System). Here's an article from AOPA that talks about it: http://www.aopa.org/asf/asfarticles/2003/sp0302.html Here are some excerpts from the POH, quoted for your information: "Spins The SR22 is not approved for spins, and has not been tested or certified for spin recovery characteristics. The only approved and demonstrated method of spin recovery is activation of the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (See CAPS Deployment, this section). Because of this, if the aircraft "departs controlled flight," the CAPS must be deployed." also "Do not waste time and altitude trying to recover from a spiral/spin before activating CAPS. Inadvertent Spin Entry 1. CAPS .................................................. ................................Activate Revision A1" Ben Hallert PP-ASEL |
