With the JT8D reliably powering the three-engine Boeing 727, the 60-minute rule was waived in 1964 for three-engine aircraft, which in turn opened the way for the development of wide-body, intercontinental trijets such as the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar and McDonnell Douglas DC-10. By then, only twin-engine jets were restricted by the 60-minute rule.
