Rotax 912 exhaust system failure.

Rotax 912 exhaust system failure.

Cracks in the exhaust system become "breakaway components" very quickly during flight, and this can play havoc with the propeller if the aircraft is a pusher type. Always conduct a careful pre-flight for such indications. Note the finger pointing to a crack initiation.

Personal experience has shown that this type failure is generally caused by vibration, and or an exhaust system that is too rigidly mounted. We have found that if you add a flex joint to the system, or another spring mount it will eliminate the cracking problem.
