Presumably enough people must be worried enough about events such as these, otherwise Cirrus planes wouldn't be so popular?
Perhaps it's a different approach to caution that leads some people to think BRS-equipped aircraft are safer. People who might think that flying without a BRS is unsafe for some reason?
I find it worrying that there are so many of them that they can make BRS-equipped aircraft so popular.
Unexpected structural failures and sudden unexpected loss of control -- two instances where I'd regret not having a BRS -- are so rare a risk that it's ludicrous to call an aircraft safer because it has a BRS. The more common causes of accidents resulting in serious injuries or death are chains of events in which human error is a factor, and I'd much rather spend money on training and safety awareness foremost instead of relying on a piece of equipment to get me out of trouble.
The statistics are not encouraging and seem to suggest that the on-board BRS might give some people a false sense of security. It certainly isn't the answer to all emergencies.
