Just an SLF, and read all posts from start of thread, but the parallel coming to my mind is BA712, the BOAC 707 at LHR in 1968 where a bit of the compressor of No 2 was ejected and severed a fuel pipe causing a fire. Also the United DC10 at Sioux City where a bit of ejected engine disc had the extremely bad luck to knock out all the hydraulics.
My point is to get a view from the experts whether the people on QF32 were just a lot luckier in the way their engine disintegrated. Or is it the case that technology on the A380 (and its engines) is so far ahead of 707s and DC10s - in other words, while uncontained engine failures on A380s are not ideal, they're just so much more robust, better designed etc. that you're not comparing like with like vis a vis BA712/Sioux UAL DC10.
Hope that's not too daft an observation and thanks for the opportunity to comment.
(EDIT - ugh! Just read stepwilk's post above. Sorry if I've annoyed anyone with my post.)
