Thread on FlyerTalk has links to video of the engine on fire in flight:

This picture is a testament to the design and build quality of Pratt & Whitney products:

The GE90 that is on the newer 777's is a much better engine. The 777's with the Pratts are older and used on shorter routes and have more dense seating configuration for flights to Hawaii. It does sound like the entire crew did a good/great job! The flight deck gets real busy when that happens, the aviate, navigate, and communicate, really challenges your ability to manage the whole system. I have been there, done it, got the T-shirt.
If NTSB does not collect the parts, sell it on etsy or poshmark. :D

Amen on engine quality, amazing video. Any guess on approx. RPM when this was taken? Must have been a fun time in the office!Quote:

Serious question..Quote:

Who is legal owner of said debris?
Can you refuse retrieval?

There were chunks of that thing burning in people's fields. Chunks in the highway median, etc.Quote:
