I'm just giving you the business. I love to read about Cirri on BeechTalk.

Now you've done it! You could have said Mirage or Meridian, A*, Van, Cessna, or anything else. But you said CIRRUS! Looking forward to hearing another perspective. I've got 45 hours in mine, now, and like it more every time I get in. And I liked it a lot to begin with. On Wed., I shot an LP approach and had to miss (KASL). Did a lap in the hold and shot the LPV on the other side and made it RIGHT at minimums. It was the most comfortable I've ever been in LIFR.

Here is the Executive Summary of my Pirep:
Wow. To quote my favorite Robin Williams character "OH, you're going straight to hell for that one!"
