Why are others not following suit?
I love data and after reading some other thread, I started looking at the numbers.
2 questions I guess.
1. Is the chute the reason Cirrus is doing so well
2. If so, Why are the others not adding them.
(Edit 3. Why am I so afraid of putting question marks at the end of sentences)
I got in a conversation with my boss who flies a G5 and we started talking about the data. I am all "Its fast, no gear to worry about, prop handles its self" He cuts me off and says "No, its the chute"
Maybe it is. If that is the single differentiator, and they are selling so many more planes based on this, why are the others not adding them. As a business, it seems like a no brainier. I can sell 30 or I can sell 300. I am adding it.
A brand new (182, 172, Mooney, whatever) already costs a bazillion dollars but they are not selling.
A brand new Cirrus costs a bazillion dollars and there is a waiting list.
If it is true. If my boss is correct. If it is the chute, why are other Mfgs not jumping on it?
