Default Cirrus... is it time for certification review?


"Peter Duniho" wrote

A quick NTSB database search shows in the last six months 4 accidents (2
fatal) involving a Cirrus SR20, and 52 (5 fatal) involving a Cessna 172. The
SR22 was involved in 7 accidents (2 fatal), while the Cessna 182 was involved
in 36 (6 fatal).


Clue - Look at fleet size, then adjust for that, and come back with some more
meaningful statistics.

How many bazillion C172's are there out there, vs. Cirrus?
