There was a recent failure of a 912 resulting in 2 deaths, but this was prop related apparently.
Folks,
If this is the loss I think it is, the problem was an interaction between the type of prop. fitted and the engine, the result was a serious mechanical failure in the engine.
Always read the engine manufacturer's words of wisdom on props. very carefully, harmonics can ruin your whole day.
Tootle pip!!
