Pace:
The whole approach to the chute comes over as wishy washy and amateurish rather than a properly researched and directed SOP
This is your impression, but I do have to tell you this is due to a lack of information on your side.
If I recall right, you were thinking about chartering a Cirrus. Do yourself a favor. Invest $65 and buy yourself a one year membership in COPA, the Cirrus owner and pilot association. It will be the most cost effective investment you ever did in aviation.
Reserve yourself (at least) two weekends for reading the vast amount of information available and then start asking your questions to the knowledgeable people there. You will very soon see that your statement above is just not true. Joining COPA will have impact on the safety of your Cirrus flying. COPA members have a much lower number of accidents than non-COPA Cirrus pilots.
