Walter Atkinson is an unknown quantity at this point
Ernie:

Are you aware that if a SkyMaster that has an exhaust crack develop had an engine monitor that event would have been seen almost immediately by a pilot educated in interpreting the engine monitor data? This would allow immediate action by the pilot to mitigate the danger.

For educational purposes, would anyone care to describe what would be seen on an engine monitor in which the exhaust riser on the #2 cylinder developed a crack? IOW, how would you know you had an exhaust crack by looking at the engine monitor display?

This is a serious reason to have an engine monitor. It can save your life.
