Haha as the only person in my last flight department with a CFI, I refused to be involved with the aircraft owners desire to fly an Icon. Fearing the worst would happen sooner, rather than later.
So I'm in. 10$ I'm guessing we will have to wait a year or two for complacency to set in and the first deadly crash will be right around the first change in the weather of late 2018. So like in two years. 11/2018
Oh and side note: 10$ in on the first victim being "retired" or "self employed".
YOU CANT TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

So what's the over/under on an Icon owner dying first?

Do you mean a legit CAPS deployment, a BS deployment (pilot-induced emergency or non-emergency), or crash-induced deployment?
Regardless, it won't be the aircraft's fault. That's agreed upon in the purchase agreement.

How many doctors will it kill in its first five years of service?

It's doomed by design. The BE35 was named the "Fork-tailed Doctor Killer." So, what does Cirrus do? Puts a v-tail on this thing.
So now, there will be another flying roadblock doing at best 300 KTAS. Then something happens and they pull the chute. Now there's an aerial hazard floating down through the flight levels.
Oh....this is going to be good.

My vote is a sports celebrity.
I've actually sat in the aircraft. When they were doing their nationwide tour earlier this year they came to a local airport to do a meet and greet. I got to meet the owner of cirrus and he gave me a tour of the airplane. It's pretty sweet. But it's more than a non professional to fly on occasion.

You realize you're dealing with professional pilots right? 10$ is a huge bet!
