Dysag & Lomapaseo,

In an effort to clarify . . .

Secondary structures (such as seats, galley, etc.) are required to be designed and tested for security for specific load factors to protect the passenger cabin including the cockpit.

The engine mounts are designed to separate without rupturing the wing tanks which indirectly protects the cabin from fire damage.
