“Scott was an exemplary pilot and
person... During his tenure at Cirrus, he made considerable
contributions to the company, the industry, and aviation safety
that many people still benefit from today. Scott was the lead
test pilot on the SR20 and preformed all 8 of the inflight
deployments of the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) for
development and certification. To date, 17 CAPS deployments have
saved 35 lives due to Scott’s pioneering
work.”
