Prospecter I would never suggest such a thing

But you might be a very good player of join the dots

I hope for the pilots sake it was a genuine engine failure.

I hear a story of old racing driver Pete Geoghan who having retired his car from a race at Bathurst, was asked by the media about the reason for the failure, he said it was an electrical problem, the reporter asked was it? Looked more serious than that. He said yeah it was, the alternator failed after being knocked of its mounts by a conrod!
