snip There are no real stats on engine failures because engine manufacturers and the FAA don't want those stats to exist. The FAA could create those stats simply by requiring pilots to report engine failures for other than fuel exhaustion/contamination reasons, but will not. Michael Even if the FAA did require reporting those failures, without also requiring pilots/annuals to report to the FAA all the total accumulated hours, the failure numbers would be useless. (However, I am not an A&P and do not know if these numbers are reported - I doubt it) |
