reassurance.

I'm an engineer by training, and used to be a journalist. Journalists take planes too, you know? And they can help push companies and regulators to take some problems seriously.

That list by TopBunk looks scary. Not a case of "Oh,one engine stopped, no worry, three left".

What would be interesting to know is whether this incident could have taken out the other hydraulic system too, or whether just one system is routed in each wing?
