Not with the same engines, of course, if the usually reported time between overhaul are correct, often at less than 100 hours.

Bad weather and primitive nav-aids caused more non-combat related losses than mechanical failure. Would it be possible to realistically implement weather-related accident? Perhaps, but I think all – or almost all – players would turn off this option. Because we all are players, and we usually dislike to have a difficult and successful mission spoiled by a random and casual flip of a coin.
