Looks like another save for BRS and Cirrus.

Apparently a Cirrus was attempting to land ACK VFR last night when
they
ran into weather (fog and low visibility after sunset on the island
are
common in the summer). They pulled the Ballistic Recovery System
parachute about 5 miles northeast of ACK.
Wouldn't it have been easier to just turn around?
That's what I was thinking. There is either much more to this story or
this was one dumb pilot. I'm hoping it is the former.

He is alive so he's not to dumb. He has money so who cares about the
plane.

Sorry, being alive is hardly a measure of dumb or lack thereof. I know a
lot of dumb people who are alive and well.

There are a lot of smart pilots who are dead. So who is the smart one the
one alive or the dead one. You decide.
