It's good how the news report says you can shut down a damaged engine and activate the second engine on a Chinook ... very handy.
Very impressive bit of handling. Would be interesting to hear how the fire started and spread so rapidly to the other engine, given that the Chinook's engines are much further apart than most (all?) other twins.
