Gemini Sparkle

Key Takeaways:

  • A previous AVweb poll found that 89% of readers opposed or qualified their opposition to an expensive missile defense system for airliners, mainly due to financial and statistical concerns.
  • The current "Question of the Week" asks whether Lycoming engine owners should bear the cost of replacing suspect crankshafts.
  • Readers are invited to submit suggestions for new poll questions or provide comments on current polls via specific contact methods.

*** PREVIOUS RESULTS ***

Before we left for Sun ‘n Fun, AVweb polled readers on the possibility of implementing a missile defense system to protect airliners.

We asked if the threat justified such an expensive defense strategy, and most of our readership said no.  42% of you answered with a flat-out no, while another 47% qualified their response by choosing Morally, yes.  Financially and statistically, no.

A small but noteworthy 11% of readers, however, said yes.

*** THIS WEEK’S QUESTION ***

Lycoming engines – again.  Should owners have to pay to replace suspect crankshafts built into their engines?
