One engine out on a 747 isn’t a big deal, is it? Hopefully :)

1 engine out on a 747 is hardly a cause for prayers.

I get L1011s, DC10s and 747s mixed up. Fox News showed a DC 10 with 2 engines for a minute and I was like “holy crap”.

Take a deep breath folks. While the media loves to bump up the music and blare the sirens the fact is that the 747 and many like it can fly with two engines out.
They’ll be fine. It is simply standard procedure that an emergency MUST be declared and the equipment MUST be rolled out.

OH Please.... these things were designed to fly if an engine snuffed.... there is no need to panic.... unless you like to be in a panic for no reason.

My commercial flight lost an engine over the Atlantic once during the mid 80s.
Not knowing anything about aircraft I never knew if losing one engine was a big deal or not.
I’m looking forward to seeing what you aviation buffs say about it.
