This is a popular criticism of the system for which supporting evidence is never provided. I'm not saying it doesn't have this effect, but I see no reason to assume it does, any more than having seatbelts in a car makes you a more reckless driver.

The Cirrus SR22 is worthy of study if you're actually interested in this. For a while at least, it had a somewhat poor safety record in spite of being in quantifiable terms an amazingly safe plane. I'm pretty sure human behavior is involved. Anyway, here's a place you could start, although I can't vouch for the quality of an article I haven't read: http://www.avweb.com/blogs/insider/AVWebInsider_CirrusSafety_206016-1.html http://www.avweb.com/blogs/insider/AVWebInsider_CirrusSafety...

Insert content here. I see from your other comments that you've got one of these, so seriously, you must have some actual thoughts on this.
