Another SR20 down in typical fashion.
In order to fly this plane safely, you must understand it, why she couldn't get down quickly, and why she spun it in the pattern.
Kathryn's Report: Cirrus SR20, N4252G, Safe Aviation LLC: Fatal accident occurred June 09, 2016 near Hobby Airport (KHOU), Houston, Texas
And a quote I wrote a few years ago (my bolding):

In fact, I might even want an AOA gauge if I flew a plane with the SR22's airfoil, (much as I would want one if I flew an F-16 or an A320.)
But, I don't, so I don't.
