Question for any A380 pilots - how much altitude would you need to lose with the loss of one engine?
Can't answer for A380 pilots but on the 747 at representative long-range weights, level off would be in the region of FL300 so altitude loss might only be couple of thousand feet if it's relatively early in the flight.
