  • Robert Scovill :

    The problem is with the NTSB and POOR INVESTIGATIONS that have resulted in over 6,418 NTSB probable causes for engine failures in General Aviation Aircraft as REASONS UNDETERMINED.

    The NTSB looks at each aircraft accident as an unique event the first ever of its kind. The NTSB does not look for trend, patterns or for that matter connect the dots from one sputtering engine with another sputtering engine. The NTSB adds insult to injury by writing off engine failures in General Aviation Aircraft 6,418 times as “REASON UNDETERMINED” Would you accept an UNDETERMINED ENGINE FAILURE from your automobile mechanic? IF the NTSB is really about saving lives solve the 6,418 UNDETERMINED engine failures in General Aviation Aircraft. Clue for NTSB, look for undetectable water in fuel tanks. Clue for NTSB, your own Safety Recommendation A-83.6. Clue for the NTSB FAA Safety Recommendations 99.283 and 99.284.
