Cirrus is not the future
The Cirrus is far from being the future, granted it is a better performer than the American metal aircraft but when you ger to look inside the structure it is all a bit of a lash-up.
The wing has cleatly had the "dog tooth" stuck on as an after thought and this lack of atention to detail runs throughout the aircraft.
Some of the factory aproved repair drawings come from Boeing documents that are years old and that are no longer used by and good composite repair shop.
I have no doubt that Cirrus wil get with the program and vastly improve the quality of the product but at the moment Cirrus owners are just helping with the test program, Its a pitty that Cirrus did not look a little closer at the construction of some of the more advanced German gliders, if they had they would have had a truly world beating product.
