Sorry to hear of the crash. The title the original poster gave the thread would seem to be trying to infer that it was "another" crash of a Cirrus as though they were crashing here there and everywhere. Not exactly correct and it would seem that from reading the preliminary accident report, it happened to be a Cirrus, but could have been any other aircraft in these circumstances.
