Default The new Fork Tailed Doctor Killer

It appears to me that the Cirrus line of aircraft has become the new
"fork tailed doctor killer", along with stock broker, dentist, lawyer,
etc...

I note that the Nall Report doesn't have an accident factor category
"Flown By Doctor or Lawyer".

But since those people are more likely to be able to afford a GA
aircraft, they are naturally more likely to be killed by direct
proportion.

I think that is the only reason for the "doctor killer" reputation. No
one else can afford those planes. If they could, there'd be just as
many from other professions that would die.
