Amazing, truly amazing, that some guys on this forum think they know better than the four type rated pilots, including the two captains, on this A380 who were there and knew all the facts, including their company ops. manual and policy. Critics of this operation would do well to read the AAIB report into the BA 747 engine failure ex LAX including the reference to windmilling and seized engines.

Talk of keyboard warriors !!!

(former 4 engine guy but with 2 engine ETOPS time in the LHS, and my 76 or 75 would have been landed at the nearest suitable airport, pronto, after engine failure, but what's the big deal about an A380 on three ? )
