Back to stalling the Cirrus....

I have stalled (and do so quite regularly as it happens) both the SR20 and the SR22 and have to stress that it really isn't very frightening at all.

I'm not going to wax lyrical about the stall characteristics, but I will say that an average pilot, with average ability and dare I say average proficiency (?) can safely recover from a stall in either of the Cirrus without any problem.

The Cirrus does a lot of things very well (and I really could talk forever about the plus points/advantages of thissuperb machine)....but like ANY aeroplane.... it will turn around and bite you in the ass if you go pushing it beyond its design limits...or it's demonstrated limits....so...DON'T!

My friend Tony says "They're gggrrrreeeaattt!"
