According to the SR-22 Pilot's Operating Handbook:
"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.
...
Do not waste time and altitude trying to recover from a spiral/ spin before activating CAPS."
Not exactly a pilot's plane. It is viewed as a form of luxury transport for the well-heeled, as was the Bonanza in the 1960's. Fatal accident rate significantly higher than average. I'm not saying it can't be safely flown in the right fashion, but it should be flown in such a fashion - minimizing maneuvering and risk, and I wouldn't want to fly one slowly.
We get it doc you hate the Cirrus. Again show us your data that it has a significantly higher fatality rate. I already showed you and provided you a link that your statement is false. Originally Posted by cardiomd

If you keep making the same statement over and over it does not make it any more true.
