205 KTAS nice. Wow look at those CHT temps. Clicked on it and got a better photo. Thanks Gary

That's about what I see, then subtract 2 KTAS for each 1k feet lower.

If you'd made me the same bets, you'd be $50 up. But I've regretted selling every plane I've had. I'll never be back in a Bo.

After over a year in the SR, I believe it will be the last travel plane I'll buy. If another, it will be another with a chute, or a twin.

While I have regrets not having the Bo, I have no regrets moving to the SR.

Some day, I'll buy a tail dragger for low and slow fun.

I was thinking a pair of good strong bungee cords and a square parachute strapped to the top; or maybe a ram-air, so I could head back toward the house.

It's counterintuitive to suppose that that airspeed and efficiency can be obtained with the gear legs hanging out, but apparently Cirrus has addressed the aerodynamic issues such that they're just a 2 or 3 kt penalty (as I understand...).
It really is easy to fly, if you watch airspeed. That's the key for a good landing, and also to avoid the base-to-final stall, for which Cirrus is noted. It's not hard to do of course, but it's just not forgiving of forgetting that little detail of airspeed!
I'm a late-to-the-party aviator. Got my private 8 yrs ago at age 52, so probably not as quick to learn as the young sprouts. However, I have consistently better landings in the SR 22 as the C206. I think it's because of attention to the detail knowing how important correct airspeed is in the SR22, whereas in the C products I catch myself just "slopping it down to the runway", (nearly) anything will work just fine.
Did I mention that AIRSPEED IS EVERYTHING??!!
One more point; the side stick is absolutely a non-issue, for those of us who normally fly with the left hand. No doubt would take some getting used to for those who fly with the right hand.
