Why are jet engines fitted outside the wings and not embedded inside? In what way are they actually attached and what could cause them to detach from the wings?
In todays episode I will be discussing all of these questions and a few more. We will be talking about shearpins, bolts and thrust links. I will also present two casestudies at the end where the system didn't work as it was supposed to.
