Correct, as with almost every aircraft in the fleet. Poor judgement is well
known to be a much higher cause of death than malfunction.
If you take out the poor judgement events from Cirrus, then you have to do
the same for the others before comparing the rates.
You can do this with the Cirrus accidents because they still have a small
enough fleet. The ratio is not that much different than I would expect it
to be, its the frequency that is compelling.
Really, what percent of Cessna accidents are not poor judgement?

While there have been some accidents due to equipment malfunction, I think
most have been ones where severe lapses in Judgement have occured

I'm thinking of purchasing a Cirrus SR22, I seen it at Sun'n Fun
(although
I
have seen it before) and now I can not stop thinking about it.
I certainly can not afford to purchase one outright, but have a few
people
at my local FBO that would be interested in partnering..
I would like to get others ideas in regards to if I should do a
lease-back
at my local FBO, or take on 4 to 9 other partners.. I will be going to
the
Rochester fly in next month (http://www.rochesterwings.com) and hope to
solidify a deal with Cirrus..
