A Cirrus is not a Cessna, but to the media all GA planes are Cessnas.

According to Wikipedia, the Cirrus SR22 is the light plane that has the built-in parachute descent system for emergencies.

Sounds like he may have flown too high too long for his respiratory capacity, and lost consciousness.

Oh, Puh-leeze. Show of hands. Who believes that plane is already in Pakistan, buried in the sand for later use? ;)

Gallows Humor, but Prayers Up for the family & friends of the pilot.

13,000. Hypoxia? Most people cannot handle 13,000 but for a few minutes. Besides, O2 is required at 12,500 for anything over 30 minutes.
