At the end of the day, who cares how many engines it has? The blades are just as likely to delaminate or have some other catastrophic failure occur! After all its the machine that has killed more pilots than any other machine. Something Frank Robinson should be proud of.

Yes, it joins the Model T Ford in the Hall of Infamy. So many people killed in them because so many people used them - because there was nothing like it until then.

Looks like a victim of Cutting & Pasting a mistake. Aren't computers wonderful!
