Cirrus and maneuvering

I received this link from a friend who is building an RV-8 and subscribes to
the RV-Lists.

It is a rather detailed review of the Cirrus SR-20 and SR-22. I was
reminded of some inpressions that I had sitting in one at an AOPA
convention, and there is a lot of additional information that I did not
know.

Suffice it to say that I would not want to turn a Cirrus about over the east
river without a lot of practice. I do not feel that way about a lot of
airplanes generally regarded as "hot"; but which have more typical control
forse gradients. (Remember that my earlier comments, in the "east river
turning radius" thread, still stand regarding the ease of turning the PA-38
Tomahawk by trading airspeed for altitude and then altitude for airspeed.)

The article is long, but a good read.

I am curious what others think.
