The Swedish Havarikommission (SAIB) released their final report concluding the probable causes of the incident were: Operational - Deficiencies in the certification process for large aircraft with wing-mounted engines with regard to requirements for yaw stability in the event of sudden loss of engine power in the speed range below VMCG. Does that mean, beside these lovely but over 40 years old planes, ALL LARGE AIRCRAFTS WITH WING-MOUNTED engines are affected? |

Which is why you close the other throttle PDQ. In any case, Vmcg refers only to rudder control, not to brakes and nosewheel steering

I'm slightly surprised nobody has mentioned the term Vmcg. Directional control is not possible below 114kts on the A300 after loss of one engine during take off roll. |
