I went to the open house when they opened the new training facility and showcased all the new Cirrus aircraft & sims. I wonder if the BRS (chute) is standard on all Cirrus airplanes, or if it's just an option.
May God comfort their loved ones.
Just saw that. This is just sobering. I remember being there when the one crashed up near Daytona. I had to great the family when they came in to pick up his belongings and it was definitely not an easy thing to do.
My prayers go out to the family, friends, co-workers and fellow students.
Two fatal accidents in -10 years for DCA. Not good.
