“Dead foot dead engine” also works. 🤙🏽

So awesome! This could bring back confidence in twin piston’s.

A pilot I know nearly died recently because he was too ashamed to admit he needed declare an emergency. Thank you for having that system readily available in case of an unforeseen emergency.

In a single engine?

When an engine loses power, the system detects the thrust difference between the two engines and applies rudder pressure in the opposite direction of the failed engine to compensate for asymmetry and keep the aircraft on course, preventing it from veering off track.

Following the Delta A330-323(N813NW) engine failure after departure from São Paulo (GRU), many are asking: what actually happens if an airliner loses an engine just after takeoff? As passenger in the cabin watching this scenario unfold, the panic is understandable. Seeing flames from an engine is alarming. But this is exactly the kind of scenario pilots are trained for repeatedly in simulators. Modern multi-engine aircraft are designed to fly safely on one engine. In fact, losing one engine is a certification requirement during testing. Here’s what happens: At liftoff, pilots target V2 speed—the minimum safe speed that guarantees the aircraft can continue climbing even with one engine inoperative. If an engine fails: • The MASTER FIRE warning light will illuminate in the cockpit and the fire warning bell will sound, alerting the pilots on the affected engine (they will close the fuel, hydraulic shutoff, and engine bleed air valves, and also discharge the related fire bottle to extinguish the engine fire). Of course, they will be careful NOT TO shut down the wrong engine (this has happened before). • Maximum thrust is applied on the remaining engine. • Rudder input keeps the aircraft straight (countering asymmetric thrust) • The aircraft climbs straight ahead for best performance (turns reduce climb rate unless required) Once above a safe altitude (typically ~1,500 ft / Minimum Flap Retraction Altitude(MFRA): • The aircraft accelerates • Flaps are retracted (“cleaning up”) • Crew assesses the situation and plans a return or diversion Even at very low altitude, the aircraft remains controllable by design. It may not climb aggressively, but it will climb. Bottom line: What looks catastrophic from the cabin is a scenario pilots are highly trained to handle—and aircraft are engineered to withstand. Hope this helps any nervous flyer. Flying is safe, and the chances of this happening have reduced due to lessons learned from previous incidents. And if you ever find yourself in this situation, trust that the pilots will act according to their training—because that’s their job.
