Engine difficulties are nothing new for Kalitta.
Remembering the one that fell off into Lake Michigan notwithstanding, when Connie acquired L10 freighters, I asked him if he was going to send anyone to RollsRoyce engine school, and he replied....'we can maintain a JT3 or a JT9 with a hammer and a big screwdriver, what do I need to send my guys to school for?'
What did they then have?
Rather massive problems with their newly acquired Rollers.

Par for the course there, I suspect.
