ReplyDeleteDoesn't mean anything. There's also at least 2 fatal crashes of Cessnas in the last few days alone...
ReplyDeleteI fly them and they are rugged forgiving and an excellent performer and yes the parachute gives a good feel when you're over water or mountains, especially at night.
Agreed! Lotta Cirrus haters out there but there one of the best selling GA out there for a reason!
Delete^ Ha! Ha! Ha! Thanks for the laughs!
DeleteActually if you're in a cirrus crash it will be either fatal or serious injuries. That's why we own a Diamond Aircraft.
DeleteVery myopic "look" at safety.
DeleteJust like high school. Although it was usually Ford vs Chevy.
ReplyDeleteDoes our NTSB routinely investigate air crashes in France? Don't we have enough crashes here to check out? I suppose it was because it involved an American plane, but I am sure French authorities are competent enough to sort it out.
ReplyDeleteThe country of registry, the country of the manufacturer and the country where the accident happen are usually involved in the investigation, but they usually agree to delegate the investigation to the one where the accident happened.
