OH no engine flame out!!

So they had an electrical failure!! So i guess they thought the engines would flame out?? Yes it must be those electrically driven engine fuel pumps!! or perhaps the igniters would stop working...???

Next time one of the national crews has a problem with the manifold bypass valve or a carburetor belt they should definitely ditch. anything could happen!!

Try pulling out a map and using your finger!!!!! and looking out the window, has been a tried and proven method of flying for better part of 100 years!!
