Hi, i have two questions and the second question is derived from the first.
Anyhow firstly i read the link to the brief overview of the incident and i noticed the following two lines:
"The incident was similar to one involving an American Airlines plane at O'Hare on Sept. 16. That plane also made an emergency landing after the pilots were unable to avoid a flock of birds, six of which were sucked into the fan blades, causing an engine to catch fire."
In this instance
6 birds were sucked into the engine
surely there was a massive chance that the birds could have been ingested by the engines resulting in a simultaneous engine failure no?
and secondly whats the procedure for a simultaneous engine failure, shortly after take off, i know in lights it straight ahead landing, whats the procedures in an airliner?
thanks guys
