Hi Wigwam,
Spookily, having mentioned a 777 takeoff out of Denver – mine were @20 years ago- today’s media contains some dramatic footage of an engine suffering catastrophic failure. Being mounted on a strut allows fuel,hydraulic,pneumatic and electrical isolation, minimises collateral damage and a subsequent safe single engine landing – pilot skill required! Hence my point regarding their suitability for use in a car.
