I haven't flown a Cirrus, ;( , so I can't speak to the flying
characteristics. But the flight characteristics offered by "Toly":

"but in the air the plane is very slippery and feels like it's skating on
ice, only in three dimensions"


This description is crap. I fly a Cherokee 180, and got my first time
in a Cirrus 2 weeks ago. The handling is a bit sportier than my
Cherokee, but is by no means uncontrollable. It took me all of 5
minutes to get used to it.
