Bertie,

There's nothing made up about "No sparks, no power" I wouldn't buy one
because of this. My club was looking at one ofr a Cherokee and decided
against it because of the lack of limp home capability.


That's not the point I complained about.

There's a ton of failure modes on any Lyc or TCM that lack "limp home
capability". Same with the Thielert. The argument is a red herring.


None of them regard electricity. The argument is sound.
