I found that my old cirrus would slow down very fast if I pulled power and pitched up a little.... Or learn how to do an overhead break :D To compete with the RV flyers.

California is now trying to have a Quad Copter user fee.... Interesting... all things in the sky below 400' are able to pay. Including kites!

article states he hit a wire.

nice looking airplane...... I've never seen one before.

I second these guys... I had them for my Cirrus when not many people were writing for them back in the day.

A new term that I get to use: Full RUD (rapid unscheduled disassembly) event.

Jay, They all bought RV's and drive everywhere.... Also, GA is to regulated and not worth all the BS to many people! Others have taken to ultra-lights, gyro-copters, etc..... What's interesting, is that several entertainment industries are losing young people too... Golf, video games, etc..

This is a paradigm shift that older pilots have not embarrassed thus far in GA. While I sold my Cirrus 4 years ago this month... My wife will not allow me to buy another airplane without BRS. And I concur, as it provides a pilot 1 more option!

My heart goes out to this little girl and may the family RIP. The thought of this definitely gives me a reason to pause and think. As my oldest daughter is 2 years younger than the girl in the story.

SR 22, with A/C and no ice protection. However, this bird is hard to find, as most get bought as soon as they hit the market and exported to South America. Look for a 2004, you can get them for $200K and the chute just got repacked. Most will have high time engines, but that should not be a...

Condolences to the family, he always offered good advice on the boards about aircraft ownership. May his family honor his life and celebrate.

When viewing a plane and pilot email I received I noticed an add for this company: Bristell Aircraft. After going to their website here: http://www.brmaero.com/ I will say that the RG is one nice looking Airplane!

For those that have done it: What is the difference between buying an airplane and renting it to a fight school or buying a house and renting it out?

Actually, you could be a California resident, work on wall street, or in D.C. Much more scum out there!!!! :lol:

Don't confuse iHenning with facts, he gets on a roll and just spews down with Capitalism, etc... all the time....

The topic on Cirrus's future derailed by the doom and gloom on this board again. So many people disgruntled with America.. No one ever said you have to stay here. It is free to come and go.... go and try that as a Chinese factory worker....

compare the fit and finish of a 2001 SR 22 versus a 2014 and you will understand. They have added a lot to each model. Thus, people flipped them quickly... thus, leading to a saturation of the market... Once, the supply dries up, the prices will stabilize and the depreciation will not be as...

I'm not here to give investment advice.while I play the market and provide for my family, not everyone does. Here is a good quote to remember: October: This is one of the peculiarly dangerous months to speculate in stocks. The others are July, January, September, April, November, May, March...

Was not trying to be mean, but was not sure you really wanted to know. Look at the mutual fund ticker FBIOX. 27% this year and 16% over the past ten years. If you don't like biotech, you can do consumer cyclical which has offered 11.29% over 10 years too. Best is to learn the stock markets...

If your interested go to fidelity and snoop around their mutual funds... If not, then don't worry about it.
