[jetracer5]

Any body have any details on the 767 that landed with an engine shut down today in ATL. They actually did a single engine go-around from about 400agl first before they came back around and landed. Kinda wanna know why they went missed single engine?

Don't worry, the news media will tell you everything you need to know in an un-biased and accurate report.

Single engine goes aren't free. Maybe if Delta pilots flew a better jet they wouldn't lose $6.7 Billion a quarter.

Early reports say that it sucked in some DAL ego, which has been wafting up from ATL like farts from a bean cooking contest, causing the flame out.

Film at 11....

Ohhhh, ahhhhh, impressive stuff!!

Scaaaaary!! How did they ever survive?

You know, 1/2 of you pilots need to grow a set! Be real men people. And we wonder why the media makes such a big thing over NON-events like this. An engine out on a 767 is hardly an emergency as the title of this thread would suggest. Be a pilot and fly the plane, it will fly fine.

Try repossessing a 727 from the bowels of Africa while being shot at, beginning your takeoff roll with only 2 engines up, while starting the 3rd while on the roll. I'll take the "inconvenience" of an engine out on a Delta 767 over Atlanta everyday of the week.

If some of you guys find an engine out on a 767 with a go-around at 400 feet an impressive feat, so be it. Just please don't ooh and ahhh about it on a public message board as it only shows your inexperience.
