My info on this 2 vs 1 is way out of date; does anyone have up to date
stats? FWIW In about 3500 hours I lost an engine in each of the T33
and 102; 2 engines in 104s, got all 4 of them back (all flameouts; ice
([probably) in the T33 and duct stalls in the others.) But in just
over 2000 hours in the F4 I lost 5 and never got any of them back. 2
shutdown for zero oil pressure, 1 for accessory drive failure, and 2
at once for fuel blockage. On that last one we also lost the airplane.
10/10/78 was my "second birthday".
