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"
