I got these photos from a friend at LAX. He works for another airline who uses silver A/C (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) They had taken a 767 out for a high power run and the High presure turbine disc let go. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) It not only took out #1 engine tih parts sliced through the belly and took out #2 also as well as opening up the wing and setting the A/C on fire.

I used to work at Northworst for 19 years and boy did I see my share of A/C damage. The best fodded out engine story I have is a DC-10 that took off from MSP and injested geese (many geese) into the #1 engine...it threw debris into #3 engine and barely made it back to the runway running only on the #2 (tail engine) fully loaded with people, fuel. baggage, freight & cargo...No time to dump fuel...it landed over grossed! (max takeoff weight is a hell of alot more than max landing weight). CLOSE CALL!
