my concern
I havejust one question as quite a regular passenger and that is ,
Would the original senario here and all the possible occurences that might lead from this have a negative impact on the time the drinks trolley is utilised ?

Yes sir, and blame the PNF if he doesn't find it! Correct me if I'm wrong, is there a trend towards more and more obscure questions and topics on PPRuNe? I havent been active in this forum for a long time, but I've read threads here and there for quite some time...

I'm still struggling to find a reference to this in the FCOM.
Same as the "infamous" Sim sessions of double hydraulic failure followed by bird strike followed by cracked windscreen and APU fire during a takeoff in icing conditions at minimums at night.........

I know... nowadays major uncontained turbine or compressor failures are rare.
But wouldn't the scenario be somewhat similar?
One engine definitely out of action, and enough debris spewed around to lead to a major explosive cabin decompression? Doesn't even need the bomb postulated earlier.

I suspect the first & most urgent action in this situation, would be the flight deck to change their underwear & replace their soiled trousers, before calmly getting the bird on the deck as safely & quickly as they can. 
& still the press would slate their actions, despite having no bloody clue what is involved!

LCA bound.
( These are statistically extremely rare events. Your chances of winning the lottery are far greater than for a potential or hypothetical accident like this, to happen. It is far more dangerous driving your car to work. How many car accidents with mortalities do you drive by that are never reported by the press. Do people still drive their cars to work without fear ? Yes.
We learn from these accidents such as Aloha Airlines 243 ( a unique and extremely unusual accident ) and the corrections were made by the FAA+ worldwide to make sure to prevent such occurences in the future. )
ASN Aircraft accident Boeing 737-297 N73711 Maui, HI#
But to answer your question
If the hypothetical and modified Aloha airlines flight 243 ( unique ) scenario No.3 were to be applied..
Sorry to say but there would be a chance that the drinks trolley would be sucked into Engine no.2 causing severe damage.
You would need a number of drinks and nurses afterwards to aid in your rehabilitation.

>A pilot told me once that airliners have one or more locations where previously unknown to be on-board explosive devices suspected to be capable of going off in short notice shoud be placed, in case they are found during flight.
Yes. Actually, I believe the designated location is outside, on top of the left wing.
The least-senior (or most senior, and closest to collecting retirement - depending on the airline in question) member of the cabin crew is responsible for positioning the possible explosive.
