If you'd read what I wrote properly and looked at the link you'd have found out that I was referring tongue-in-cheek to a Sky News report in which footage of a twin-engined, single deck Airbus (or, I'll admit, possibly a Boeing) was said by the newsreader to be the four-engined, twin-deck Airbus 380 coming in to land.

Now the rest of you: hands up if you normally shut down a second engine "for even distribution of power". Nope. Thought not.
Well, not on a twin, anyway

Even distribution of no power
