That is so obvoius I can’t believe I have to go through it again.

You are the one who said "A single engine plane is more reliable than a dual or tri-motor plane." Which was a stupid statement that you made like it was a fact. It's flat out wrong. I suspect that you know that now, you're welcome.

My statement - and yes, it was improperly worded - was to multiple engines, whether on a small airplane or on a large rocket, allowing for an increased liklihood for a problem. Which I made clear in subsequent posts.

Early aviators did indeed find it was more dangerous to fly with more than one engine, depending on the airworthiness of the craft. The very reason for the old adage, back then, about one engine being safer than two.

To the main issue: I wish Starship well on the next attempt.
