I had to reply to the incident regarding the Cirrus that recently went
down in icing conditions, at night, in the mountains. There has been a
lot of discussion on the Cirrus Owners website regarding recent
accidents and wether or not they are related to the safety of the
Cirrus. I have owned an SR22 since August and love the plane, so I'm
not unbiased, but as a reference, in 2004 there were 20 fatal accidents
in 182's vs 3 fatal accidents in Cirrus. I have no statistics on the
hours flown in each type.


How many SR20/22's in the inventory and how many 182's? The 182 is the
second most popular airplane out there.

I'd venture to

For the last few years, production figures have been about the same for both
birds.

Are those statistics only counting recent production aircraft?

Yes. The last thousand or so aircraft from each manufacturer.

No. George is confusing two sets of statistics. Perhaps he thinks you are
replying to his earlier post which did compare only recent production
aircraft.
