My buddy's Cirrus SR20 makes a beeping sound when we're about 10' off the ground on landing until we touch down. It's the same noise we hear if we suddenly hit a thermal and drop a little bit in the air. I asked him about it and he said it was the stall warning. He's been flying for 15ish years and is an experienced instructor so it's not like he's new to it. I'll ask again next time we go up.
