Max talks about the fatal crash of a SR22T in Shelbyville, IN and why after an engine failure, Cirrus pilots are encouraged to use the CAPS parachute rather than glide down to a field. He also talks about why Cirrus pilots are at greater risk of dying than Cessna pilots if they do attempt to put their airplane into a field. He also describes the physics behind why a parachute pull is safer than trying to land in a field.
