I was a skipper on a twin engined widebody, working for a big Far Eastern based airline, climbing out of a large airport in the Far East (airborne 20 minutes) when the left engine decided to stop in a very spectacular fashion - with hundreds of screaming pax (including CP and cabin crew) in my ear I calmed the CP (of 25+ years experience) and briefed her in the usual fashion - I was then asked, "should we finish the service?"
