this could have been so much worse had it damaged the airframe. 777 is a pretty large bird!
and why they used to require 3+ engines to cross oceans.
Is this why I have a third eye?

I thought it was because your arms got tired?
Whoa
“ The A350 XWB's current ETOPS[-370] certification covers 99.7% of the Earth's entire surface, allowing point-to-point travel anywhere in the world except directly over the South Pole.”
Ah yes, ETOPS, engines turn or passengers swim.
Pretty wild that the 777 can haul itself to the nearest airport, no matter where it is in the world, on one engine. Still can’t forgive it for killing off the tri jets and 747s, but they are pretty awesome planes all the same.

That GE-90 is a humbling monster to stand next to.
110,000 lbs of thrust. That will move city blocks.
The GEnx intake is larger in diameter than the 737.
SI units > US units
Si.SI units > US units
Except for miles. Kilometers would be too depressing to use here.
Why? They look like you rode MOAR!
Few things are more annoying that dealing with some spec'd as 3000 inches.
