Actually looking at the data to see what it says rather than looking for what you want to see in it would work for me. I'm sure there are lots of regulators (some of whom probably don'y know whats inside a cowling) who are keen to justify their half baked ideas.

Always thought it is hillarious that the only major part of an entire rotorcraft that is subject to a rigorous reliability based system safety assessment (the engine iaw Part 33) is the one bit the CAA seem to believe fails so regularly that you need a whole host of kit and extra procedures in JAR-OPS3 just to protect against failure in the first and last few seconds of the flight when PC2/PC2e.
