Turns out that the statement I saw on the other forum, that "the chute is laying in the grass in good condition", was based upon the photo I posted at #48 and someone's assumption that it was of the aftermath of this tragedy.
In the original text above that photo I made clear that it was of a different incident which the POB survived. I posted it to show the effects of a post-impact fire on a Cirrus, even after a successful CAPS deployment. I've now added new bold and capitalised text above the photo, to assist the slow learners.
