I think it's a neat name actually they were built in Bend, Oregon. Corvallis is in Oregon though, home of Oregon State University. I don't think Bend is a good name for an airplane FWIW

Not saying it's perfect, but carrying 150lbs with a squib to blast the aircharge around, adds to weight and stall speed etc.  Vertical descent in the Cirrus under chute peaks around 19 MPH at max weight (going on memory). Lateral speed is based on wind. This will almost always be less then vector in the almost stalled config you propose. Let alone, when you run into an object on the ground. Note: I am pretty sure the vertical speed in the Cirrus under the chute is slightly higher then the glide descent rate. Tim
Best glide in the Bo is about 1000'/min. That is about 11 MPH vertical. Best endurance glide speed is less than that, so I would say that the vertical descent speed could be reduced to around 8-9 MPH. The vertical speed isn't what gets you, it's the forward speed.
