ETOPS

Some time about 1992 when I was at Boeing working on the 777 we were in a meeting in which a bunch of airline types were present. As the meeting progressed, the subject of ETOPS was presented. From the back of the room came the voice of one of the airline reps, " Hell, I know what that means! Engines Turn Or People Swim." That loosened up the meeting quite a bit.
