@LauraSavino747@MCCCANM Itβs hard to watch the left engine breaking off. We did not think that the same issue from 1979 would happen again, but it did. https://t.co/xMIZjKyZeQ
@LauraSavino747@MCCCANM A detaching engine makes this more like AA191 in 1979. In this case there seems to be less asymmetric lift, so the left slats and flaps likely stayed out. But the remaining two engines somehow could not lift the airplane in the air.
@giulio_mattioli The per-person-per-km GHG emissions of an airplane are about the same as a city bus or a car. Electric trains are better. This is based on the emissions current US energy mix and diet.
