Carnage Matey
I try not to read too much of inference into web posts. It's useless. So.
You say the Rollback on 038 is the only incident of its type? Not so. Unless you mean the only one causing an accident.
If you "sense" impatience in my post, you are correct. I believe I share this with others who have posted on this thread. I draw my conclusions from what I read here.
Does this "new frontier" of Fuel chemistry concern you? While flying, I never got completely comfortable hearing ATC tell me: "Standby". Tell someone else, is what I was thinking. Not irrational, considering I was giving over my flight to another, if only temporarily. The same holds true here.
Long ago, I was downwind on first solo, abeam tower. "Cessna xxxJ extend downwind for Aztec landing straight in." 3 MILES later, I timidly called Tower requesting a base turn. Never been patient with other authorities since; at least not completely.

Aside: by the way, could the reason no other engine types have been tested "yet" mean anything to you?
