Default RE: Runaway Jet issues
Well, let's see - the average turbine has what - 10 minutes of fuel at most firewalled? 10 minutes is a sixth of an hour. 200 mph / 6 = 33 miles. Where ya gonna find 33 miles of open ground on both ends of the runway? [X(] Guess that's why the failsafe needs to shut the motor off
