Remember when ESP was just for CD players?

Now with Perspective ESP, pilot workload is further reduced as you have all the power and capability of the most advanced cockpit in general aviation to actively monitor and safeguard against unusual airspeeds and attitudes, entry into stalls/spins, or the onset of other potentially unsafe flight situations. Not only will ESP alert you to the severity of the situation, but it can also provide active feedback and ‘soft’ flight control inputs to recover the plane back to normal flight. It is truly an order of magnitude advance in technology for the GA cockpit.

Effective immediately, Perspective ESP is available - at no additional charge - on all Cirrus Aircraft ordered with the Garmin GFC700 autopilot and the Cirrus Perspective by Garmin avionics suite by September 30, 2010. Final certification is currently underway with system installation via a software update anticipated in Fall 2010 for aircraft ordered today.

Oh Cirrus.
 
I have no problems with more warnings as there are those who certify pilots just because... and hence we have idiot pilots. However, I would never fly an airplane that does any item automatically for me that I can't overpower. Ap... switch and breaker stops it. Stick pusher, you can force it back for some time (maybe clearing a mountain peak?). That's the reason I'm not a fan of airbus scarebus as you have to go through a few steps to finally get back to manual control if you need it.
 
HAHAHA I think your avatars should do battle!

Phht.


Excuse me while I whip this out.
