My friend just became a 1/3 owner of a new Cirrus SR22-G2 and took
another friend and I for a short hop down to Novato (Gnoss) from Santa
Rosa (KSTS). What a "sport scar" compared to the old 172 M that I
normally fly. I know that you all have your own opinions of the Cirrus,
so I don't feel a need to interject my own.

However I do have a question - Once while in flight, and once while
taxing, we heard and felt a distinct "clunk" come from someone forward
of the firewall.

We all have our opinions of the Cirrus, but even the most avid fans of this
airplane will tell you that there should never be "someone forward of the
firewall." There are no seat belts there.
