It certainly did, and as the turbine wheel blades departed from the back and side of the engine at full throttle, my english luck held out that i did'nt recive one of them

Does anyone know for sure if the JJ wheels are Xray inspected to usual standards like Wren, JetCat, etc?

It's my understanding that Joe himself inspects the wheels while using the following "no expense spared" system:

Is there something wrong with that? Looks like a pretty comprehensive examination to me!

Nothing wrong that I can see ... the ad offers a money-back gaurantee, so it MUST be a valid technique.

Maybe a tad uncharitable, afterall it did run for 2 years very well, untill someone pratted with it, and i have seen other engines do the same, but at the end of the day for what its worth here's my advice, do not stand at the back or side of any engine when its running, because if the blades decide to stop holding hands and one of them hits you, your realatives will be looking for a fancy wooden box for you, and when it happens as it surly will, we will face more and more restrictions as to how and where and wherefor we persure our hobby
