this is actually based on the crash of the 747-200F El Al cargo flight 1862 in 4/10/1992.

no.3 engine seperated from the wing and it took out no.4 as well. so both engines are lost, and the crew did experience control problems.

i gotta write an essay on what systems are affected by losses of two engines, i knew for a fact that the crew experienced controlling problems and eventaully lost control and crashed so it must be linked to the hydrualics since some flight controls are only powered by hydraulics system 3 and 4, so if they're gone the flight controls will either be degraded or lost.

but what are the other stuff that would be affected?

i seriously couldn't think of anything else and the books i have and the internet aren't helping much

i'm risking that my lecturer will actually see this post but oh what the hell where else am i suppose to get good info then.

hope u guys can help me a out a little bit, just need some hints that's all.

cheers
