In the air, yes, but they also spend a lot of time at ground idle, as well as taking off and landing. On the ground they are subject to the same sand and dirt intake a car engine would see. My point was that most of the engine builds where taking off a filter is even a consideration are going to be maintained and inspected at a very frequent interval.

So what it comes down to is the fact that you can't compare a jet to a car.

You may not realize this but not vehicles are allowed on any portion of an airport that planes use to taxi/takeoff from until the tires are inspected and rocks/pebbles are removed because they can be deadly if kicked up by engine thrust and thrown who knows where. Then you have several other major factors that you haven't considered, Runways are swept on a regular basis (or at least they used to be), The runways are also somewhat self cleaning because each time an airplane takes off anything on it is blown off by the airplane itself. The engine is a turbine not a piston driven engine, So what little dust it see's does little harm, The engines are also several feet off the ground not inches off the ground like the typical street driven vehicle.

Sand/dust chews up stuff real quick.
A jets is a ridiculous comparison, like absolutely ridiculous
You obviously don't understand how they work if you are comparing them
There is nothing even remotely close to intimate steel on iron in a jet
If you have ever seen the inside of an engine that was dusted even slightly next to a normal one... You would understand

ummm the sane oil you run with an air filter.
you guys are over thinking this ****. Or maybe aren’t even thinking enough. You run no air filter, changing your oil more frequently ain’t going to save you. Period. You get dirt, dust or debris in the engine, it’s going to be drug on the cylinder walls. Changing your oil a bunch will not help or protect you from debris on cylinder wall damage. It just isn’t. You are wasting money on oil. Do what you want. Think what you want.
does a jet have a piston and rings that constantly contact a cylinder? Or could dirt and dust just be blown right through and incinerated as it goes though? Personally I think a jet engine is a very poor comparison to a combustion engine. If you look at how both are made, dirt and stuff can pass through a jet engine because they are a straight through design. An engine, it has oil all in it, debris has to change directions several times, be suspended in the combustion chamber, stick to the cylinder calls, be scraped into the the cylinder walls and some be partially be blown out if it didn’t get stuck somewhere. Big difference between the two.
