....which is far easier to achieve if you have four engines as opposed to two on long over-water flights, but the FAA seems mysteriously happy to ignore that aspect of long-range ops and focus strangely on looking minutely at aeroplanes with great redundancy instead of those that aren't that redundant and risk everybody on one engine over water for excessive periods.

Shall we call it a day?
