Yes, and he didn't get any beer either.
Now then, back to topic.
Here we have UAL departing (which was not all that clear from the originating post), engine goes bang, so he dumps and returns.
Question:
How long would most chaps feel was reasonable steaming around on one engine, dumping fuel to landing weight, in a twin?
A very interesting incident happened with SV many years ago wherein a B737 departed (tankering fuel) and had an engine failure.
This guy flew around for two hours before returning for landing, trying to
burn off to landing weight (fuel dumping not possible with this model).
The 737 fleet manager was
not amused.
Not having flown twin engined transport jets (very lucky), this single engine climb/cruise/dump scenario did not present itself.
