New generation aircraft with EEC's will not exceed engine limiations when throttles are "fire walled". The EEC provides N1 and N2 redline overspeed protection in both normal and alternate modes. The EGT limit must be observed by the crew because the EEC does not provide EGT redline exceedance protection.

Not everybody flies new birds

A good question with equally good answers.

Serious prangs
 

Well the two engine brigade are not immune at all. Most of their encounters leading to accidents have been non-fatals.

There can be a loss of lift on some aircraft during gear retraction as there is a positive pressure in front of the gear legs.

Watch out for your autopilot modes when going through the encounter. It is not unknown for Control Wheel Steering to drop out and the crew not know.

I thought I would regret that sweeping statement. Yes indeed of the 9 fatal accidents involving Jets (according to this table), only six of nine were tri-jets, interestingly the other three were rear eng MD-82, DC-9 and IL-62, a couple of other non-fatal "fender benders" I couldnt find info on without spending the afternoon on Google.
The point I was obliquely making is. For SE certification 2eng aircraft have more excess thrust available, thus enabling them to more adequately deal with windshear, it appears this may also be a factor for the rear mounted eng machines ??

PS; table didnt format into post.... sorry about list length
