Couldn't open the pictures, but I suspect it's the FOD damages JT9 pictures which seem to do the rounds regularly. A 747 can do a three engine ferry. In the case of the JT9, it has to be 'gagged' which also involves preventing the N1 stage roating in the case of fan blade damage. Using cargo strops is the recommended procedure.
