Double engine failure hours from land

It's understood we're talking about two engines failing due to independent causes.
There's a calculated probabilty that this will happen one day. It's not, as barit would like, a non-issue.
If it does happen, and 300 people are killed, it won't mean that aviation has suddenly become less safe.
