t would be entirely innappropriate to start jumping to conclusions about shaft failure or whatever.
Tried it in the simulator today. Aux drive shaft failure at 90 pecent N1. The engine simply flames out with no fuss and bother. The N2 falls instantly to zero indication. The vibration is less than that during take off. Normal load shedding occurs. Clearly no severe damage indications.
