I have recently been told that statistically we are over that time and the safety experts are wondering when such a disaster will happen.
Statistics don’t work that way. An unlikely event doesn’t become “due” just because it hasn’t happened for ages. The chances of two engines failing now are just as unlikely as they were several years ago.
