Crackerjack.

True...the same part would also be on the other engine. But that argument works also for a quad, there you have 3 same parts that could fail therefore the liklyhood of an another engine failure is much more.

An ETOPS check is done before each ETOPS flight to make sure everything is up to par on a twin. Is there such a requierment for quads?
