yes they did are fantastic job, saw the captain today looked completely drained, hes got a few days off now though,kudos to them.....
in regards to the engine, i heard about the same happening a few years ago on a 737 in asia, this is very rare though,(if all bearings are lubed up that is). The engine must of came to a striking hault, a big grinding would of been heard i guess....
could of been a lot worse though mate.....
