Had a quick search but I haven't really found anything on this that really explains it to me in a manner I understand.
Is the current benchmark (e.g. the golden spanner) miles, or minutes between incident? Furthermore, how is it calculated?
e.g. if the best fleet in its class has a rating of 25,000 miles, does that mean that each unit averages 25,000 miles before a failure, or is that the 'worst case' unit of the fleet? I'd imagine it's fairly common for fairly fast units to cover 500-800 miles a day.
If every unit in a fleet like that failed on average 25,000 miles then you'd have a failure every day with a fleet size of only 30. Is that right?
Sorry if this is blindingly obvious!![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rfsmile/smile.gif)
