Anger in the air!

I remeber seeing shots of early BOAC 747s with an extra engine stowed in the same place, although I think I remeber seeing a fairing over the intake and exhaust...

Aha - I had a feeling I'd seen one on a VC-10, and...



Apparently it was more elegant than the 747. That picture was from 1963...

It was probably easier and more ecenomical to carry a spare in those days than have to wait for a replacement

About the engine under the wing, thats going to a delayed jet that needs her engine replaced. and the engine is under the wing for ease of removal and transport to the other aircraft that blew the engine.

We lost an engine on take off out of BKK, Dumped fuel and did a Hurried mealservice then a landing back at BKK. the aircraft waited 4days for her replacement to turn up. then some engine testing and back on the route.

Heres a air rage pic,
