You make it sound like we lose an engine every night......

. The PT6A series has an In Flight Shutdown rate of 1/every 100K flight hours. I like those odds. Unfortunatly Airnet seems to be on the short end of the stick in that department.

*edit* JFYI all other PT6 engines have an IFSR of 1 per 250K hours.
