Yep loose an engine and you'd be like the multi engine bomber that
landed in the windshield of Frank T's rental car. (crasher 2, I think)

Thats if it got off the ground???????? The parachute thing gets me thinking,
where would you put it, what would happen when you pulled the cord?
Would you squeeze the fuel out of the tanks, get covered in Jet-A, have
a smoke on the way down and turn into a human para-flare?

thats around 400lbs of thrust on that pack ... hey, if a turbine fails ( which it very well might, as looks like these are USA-AMTs ) the thrust ofset between the 2 sides will flip him over .... i would actually add one of these to run the left/right side ECUs with, and that would add a little bit of compensation to any thrustofset by automatically varying the throttles ...
