I make it Jabiru 0.67 per thousand hours, Rotax 0.22 and others 0.39.

Jabiru 3 times more likely to fail than Rotax.

Jabiru almost twice as likely to fail as the "others".

Enough reason to take action I suppose but I wonder why these stats are only now coming out. Why haven't RAAus (or CASA) advised us of this before. If they had then maybe market forces would have forced Jabiru to take action.
