The failure of the rear General Electric CF6-6 engine caused the loss of all hydraulics, forcing the pilots to attempt a landing using differential thrust. There were 111 fatalities. Prior to this crash, the probability of a simultaneous failure of all three hydraulic systems was considered as low as one in a billion.
A 1976 study included an evaluation of the armor required to contain the energy from 1 blade, 2 blade, and 4 blade fragments of the compressor and turbine stages of General Electric CF6 and Pratt & Whitney JT9D engines; although the 4 blade fragment was unlikely to occur, containing it would have required a steel plate 1.212 inches (30.8 mm ...
