After seeing the picture (on Cherokee Chat) of the guy whose
crankshaft completely sheared in half while in CRUISE flight, you
really comprehend how many things can go wrong inside our engines...
(He landed safely -- incredibly, the engine was still making power!)


Wow! I would love to see some internal pictures and descriptions of that
engine. Any news reports or pilot blogs of the flight?

Was this one of the engines with the crankshaft retirement AD's?
