Why are there ridculous statements about being more/less safe. It's like being slightly pregnant. If you want to be more safe then don't takeoff at all in case the wings drop off at FL350.
FACT If the worse case scenario - second engine failure, had happened at the worst point, then the aircraft would still have been capable of landing safely.
Does it get any safer than that in this situation ????
And just why are the FAA looking into this, outside their jurisdiction - Commercial pressure from Boeing to push twins...
