How to Fly a Traffic Pattern in a CIRRUS (a satire)

Ever wanted to know how I fly a traffic pattern in a Cirrus SR22?
Well wonder no more. In this video, I am going to show you the 4 methods I use to navigate my Cirrus to the pattern and then use the pattern to land the cirrus safely with or without using the parachute.

This is a satire. Fly as your instructor taught you.

The “up, up and away” lever. Too funny!

You have such a great sense of humor and can deliver with such beautiful seriousness. Really well done!

I went out and tried technique 1 this morning. I did not realize how easy that method was. Thanks for your insightful knowledge and thanks for making me a better cirrus pilot.

Just found your channel so you have a new subscriber. As a Cirrus driver I have learned a lot just from this video. My CSIP told me that there is never any reason to go around in a Cirrus, just pull the chute.

I recommend the denial-heavy "Oops method". I use this along with the top tips Bryan provided, in his "ATC communications" educational video. I am queen of the skies, everyone avoids me, yet I hear nobody complain, ever.
With love from North London, UK. I think.

You forgot one. Cirrus pilots must always land at a field that has a heliport because what they’ll do is just fly over the field and look for the heliport and pull the cute and bring her down gently onto the pad.

[Bill]

It’s so refreshing to hear from a pilot who’s been there and done that.
Kudos my friend.

[benfrost]

Please don't ever stop making videos, your content is fantastic

[ParrtheCourse]

I think I've done the "Oops" method before!!!!

[BRTardiff]

I left general aviation before the first Cirrus was built. Thank you for painting a picture of what I can expect to find if I ever come back. 😂

[jcburleigh]

That second landing diagram made me LOL, thanks!!

[OldJong]

If I ever learn to fly, I want to fly a Serious just like you! 🙃

[stevenhorney]

Hilarious! I'll have to try pre-programming the auto pilot before hitting the "up, up, and away" lever on the Piper; unless, of course, it places me too close to a Cirrus at the next airport...

[TheFalconJetDriver]

Cirrusouly 🤣🛫 I enjoy your satire! Especially the explanation of your students. I bet the AFW FSDO is shaking their heads and they are making rattle can like noises! Keep up the good work!😁🛫

[cdsnider]

I was on the fence but now I'm definitely buying a cirrus!

[zosoachilles]

Clever! Laughing at yourself is the best way to keep learning and putting minor errors behind you. Some truth here though, to a Cirrus pilot, a "short" approach is what they perform in the morning, "Hmm, cargo pockets today or sexy & smooth?"

[thebigcnel]

I’ve learned a lot today. My passengers will appreciate your outstanding knowledge on the “other” traffic pattern base turns.

[Graemehatz]

You know I've heard of those "S Turns" before but never knew what the term meant. Now I know where to perform them. On the runway

[yipsinformation]

Accurate. The only thing I could add is squawking 7600 for pleasant radio silence.

[Dan]

Classic. Don’t forget the “shooting ILS approach to missed approach point towards opposite traffic” during high activity hours with a full pattern of students.
