sb_sfo,

Thanks for the MMEL reference. 4 ED gennies does seem a safe situation to start ETOPS 180, particularly as you have the Main battery and the RAT to cater for a (temporary) double flameout.

The double engine failure, leading to a forced landing/ditching, is not part of the ETOPS remit, I guess, but the Main battery and RAT should give you enough EIS to perform it.
