CRJ engine problems out of DEN

[DrewBlows]

I was imaging the other end of the engine being gone. I spoke with a Captain who lost an engine shortly after takeoff and discovered that it really was "lost" after landing. Most of the engine from the hot section aft was gone. Wish I had pictures of that.

Those are the N1 bypass vanes, not turbine.

Good thing they don't let me work on those things.

Even better that they don't allow you into the cockpit after you're done serving your coffee!

Someone is missing a hang glider I think.

What is that cloth like material hanging off?

I believe it's the kevlor shroud that is suppose to contain the engine parts from penetrating the fuselage during a catastrasphic engine failure. It looks like it worked.

I happen to take pride in my coffee.
