Listers,

 

It seems to me there have been a disproportionate number of unexplained turbine engine failures that have resulted in wrecked airplanes, lost lives, and heartaches.  I thought they had the edge in reliability.  Is there a common thread in the install?  I can think of enough crashes that suggest maybe there is more safety in a standard piston install.
