>Highly knowledgeable people

Who? You're some guy on the Internet. I should take it on faith that you can tell who is knowledgeable and who is a blowhard?

> have commented on it and not said it was anything unusual, so, yes, I'd say it's reasonable.

Again, instead of providing a fact I have to trust the judgment of a person I do not know.

It should have been obvious from my question that I know that much about turbines. Do you have any information specific to 777 engines or something comparable?

>Experts commenting on their field of expertise don't count for anything, or what?

They might. It depends who they are. I don't always believe everything I see on television or the Internet. Sometimes I like to know their reasoning.

Why the hell are you posting on an internet forum if you're not interested in what "some guy on the internet" has to say?
