okomile:Baba they still had 3 back up engines but returned to fix the one faulty engine. That is a sane country! Dana knew the plane that crashed only had one functioning engine which had problems too and still decided to fly with it. Do you know how rare and unlikely it is for a plane to lose all 4 engines? 1 Like |

An airplane can still glide if it loses all its engines. The higher you fly, the better. I hope they landed safely. If a plane loses all its engines, let's say its location is Shagamu, cruising at an altitude of 33,000 ft. It can still make it to M.M airport ikeja by gliding. An Emergency landing would do... 1 Like |

obidark:yes I’m sure. Of course there are rules. But thats my point, This is Nigeria. No one follows rules. Check what happened to Dana. That plane should not have taken off. They must have known it only had one functioning engine. And then that one too failed mid flight. A plane does not lose all four engines in one flight. The chances of that are astronomically low. 1 Like |

handsomeyinka: Good morning what they meant was you need all engines to land o not that Abuja is a bad city we think of all they unfortunate crashes we’ve had in this country who knows whether na ordinary maintenance mishap wey cause am All plane engineers need to check that they replace every part properly with their screws and it needs to be inspected and police need to be stationed under these planes before take off. Some of these mishaps are just because someone didn’t do their job right o At OP ? I wonder what type of plane it is ? 1 Like |

slyfoxxjoe: Not all planes have four engines bro. But the Boeing 747 BA uses for its trips to Nigeria has four engines. Lufhtansa's Boeing 777 used also for its Nigerian trips are equipped with 2 engines. |
Re: British Airways Flight Heading To Abuja Loses Engine Mid-Air by Nobody: 7:54am On Nov 28, 2019 |
Bekermann:all modern passenger jet airliners used for mass transportation of people and cargo have four engines bro. We are not talking propeller twin-engine planes here. Those are usually used for training or by private pilots. |

All I know is if it was a Nigerian aircraft. This incident would be blwn out of proportion with satanist sites like instablog and that bastard mod that is always quick to push bad new about Nigeria into front page and efcc news and tonto dike news would have derived joy by quickly posting trash just to drive traffic without putting in mind the negative effect on the country... A lot of bad happens world wide but they know how to manage it without portraying themselves like baboons.. |

Re: British Airways Flight Heading To Abuja Loses Engine Mid-Air by Nobody: 8:26am On Nov 28, 2019 |
seangy4konji:the plane relevant to this topic we are discussing has how many engines. Of course some old model planes have 2 engines but when last did you see any top airline use a mcdonnell douglas or the likes for long haul flights? I know BA for a fact uses Boeing’s for these long distance and heavily loaded flights so perhaps you are the one that needs to educate yourself on the topic being discussed before you start bringing up irrelevancies to the conversation. |
