FAA to conclude 2 engines as safe as 3 or 4

There were articles in the Wall Street Journal and Reuters yesterday (reproduction prohibited) stating that the FAA is poised to issue regulations concluding that 2-engine operations are as safe as 3- or 4-engine operations and that ETOPS upper limits can expand to 5 1/2 hours (330 minutes).
