SR20 down in Illinois

Reported to be a Cirrus SR20. IIRC, these airframes have some sort of a BRC. Looks like it is deployed at the accident site.

Lotta wreckage to be associated with a BRS deployment. Odd.

My thought as well. Wonder if the chute can be deployed by impact forces.

The chute looks to be deployed on impact or maybe to late. I'm sure we know in a few months.
