Dammit Cash, seeing photos like these adds another layer of concern when one thinks of the newer style geared turbofan engines & how those planetary reduction gears & their associated bearings take one hell of a beating. I realize of course you are just pointing out the fact these things & anything else mechanical will at some point, suffer some type of failure. Is that the Qantas A380 engine that grenaded?

Cheers

I work up the street from a jet engine turbine plant. Their building is huge. They had a blade let loose in testing, punched a hole through the building and took out a car in the parking lot several hundred feet away. They now have a concrete bunker in their building for testing.
