I guess you can tell, I have gotten a little paranoid about engine failures. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you in Mt.

The crankshaft broke between the third and forth connecting rod from the front. I am not sure what the crank is made from. The engine kept running, but when I knew I had the runway made I shut the engine off and made a good dead stick landing.
