...aircraft radial engines were notorious for "blowing" spark plugs.

...the R-3350 turbo-compound engines with PRT's on our Lockheed EC-121 "Warning Star" aircraft would typically loose either a "plug" or a "jug" about once or twice a year...of course, that's after running continuously for 16-20 hours at a time during each flight.
