Safety of GA flying
Barney,
Another part of the equation is the reliability of piston engines vs turbines.... Is it? How many piston accidents are due to engine failure? Is that a major factor in accidents? In fatal accidents? -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

Stefan,
In Germany alone at least one each month (often more), according to the BFU Bulletins. Accidents? Incidents? Fatal? That's what percentage of all accidents? -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

Stefan,
I pointed you to the source, now you can do the required research to answer your question yourself. One might also say you posted a meaningless number and I asked you to put meaning to it. ;-) -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

I know what I've claimed, I'm not interested in exacter numbers, and certainly not in pecentages. But for those who are, I'll even post the link with the rough material: http://www.bfu-web.de/cln_003/nn_414...html__nnn=true Stefan |

On the other hand, one might also say that you asked a rhetorical question and are not even interested in the answer, otherwise you would jump on the source and look for the answer yourself. Stefan |

Stefan,
one might also say that you asked a rhetorical question What I really did was ask Mr. Rubble to explain how much of a "part of the equation the reliability of piston engines" really is - after he stated it was. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |
