It's certainly the right time to move lower end general aviation to modern kerosene and diesel fuel burning piston engines that are SAF capable later on. Not everything needs to be turbine powered.
How about battery failures on the RED? Could the engine keep itself running? IIRC it can "split" the cylinder banks sort of to make them redundant?
