Just by looking at the engine size and its location from the body of A300, doesn't it appear to be way in front of the leading edge of the wing? Wouldn't this produce a huge torque when the plane encounters a severe side force such as when it first enters a wake turbulence?
I haven't read all the posts and reports on the accident, but has this possibility been discussed before to explain the engine loss?
