I thought they (Cirrus) was released from the spin recovery part of
certification *because* they had a chute. mike regish "John E. Carty" wrote in message . com... "Larry Dighera" wrote in message ... On Fri, 4 Feb 2005 19:14:09 -0600, "John W.

First I've heard of it. What is the source of that information? I presume that spin recovery method is not mentioned in the POH. I can imagine situations where it might be preferable to 'chute deployment if it was truly a certifiable spin recovery option. When we were looking at possibly buying a Cirrus (last year I believe) I contacted one of their reps about spin recoveries and was told that they were never tested but could 'possibly' recover normally from a spin :-) |

Are you able to provide a link to the web address for that document? Sorry, no. Don't have one. --Galvin |
