Cirrus 22 Problems
On my occassional forays into the world of private (real) flying I have noticed the proliferation of Cirrus 22 about.
Now a chap I know, Florida based, is currently trying to offload his asap as are apparently a number of other owners.
My guy says that the 'dodgy' stall characteristics and lack of spin recovery are giving the US insurers the jitters and the whole thing is about to blow. He has also mentioned that the US insurers will not payout if the chute is pulled!!
I have already asked the only UK 22 owner I know but he wasnt aware of anything nasty in the pipeline.
I ask because a friend who is considering purchase of a single asked me for any observations I may have. Are there any owners out there wno could give me any info to pass on. Any other info also appreciated.
