Brings to mind also the loss of an RAAF 707 tanker off East Sale some ten or more years ago (although that was a VMC air exercise gone horribly wrong). The low-speed departure due to asymmetry and flight control limitations seem similar.

I imagine that a departure into autorotation of a multi-engined heavy would be non-recoverable.
