It's a company that deliberately markets its aircraft in a misleading way to naive, low-time, wealthy pilots. |

"But Buick, which sold more vehicles in China than it did in the U.S. last year, faces an uphill battle on its home turf. Its U.S. sales have tumbled 46 percent since 2002. And the slide continues so far this year." This is a 2007 news article. Bob Moore |

The statistics indicate that the pilots that have accidents in Cirrus aircraft are generally not low time pilots, so any allegations about the marketing are irrelevant. |

Sure, it will be made in the US... For now. How long till they do like they have historically done and move everything over there and "refine" the design. |

They don't invent or innovate on their own - independent thought is discouraged. So they bring foreign companies in, let them operate for a bit, nationalize them, then become your next competitor. It's happened over and over and over. |
