At the same time, given the close proximity of the 3 engines, I'm not that convinced by the safety argument.
It's nice if one of the engines goes down (no fuel ?), but if it's an uncontained failure, it would probably have been better to have just one engine, but on the other wing...no ?

Nice plane though.
