CASA is responding to a high, and increasing, rate of engine failures among aircraft that are powered by engines manufactured by, or under license from, Jabiru Aircraft. Former U.S. Marines test pilot Art Nalls, who has been the only civilian pilot and owner of a BAE Harrier, has announced the acquisition of a second Harrier.
