Is a Four-engine Jet (B747, A340, A380) safer than Twin-engine (B777, B767, A320) one?
I recently read this claim by Airbus about an "advantage" of A340 over its' rival B777 since it has four engines. It said if one engines failed A340 CAN continue on its' course, whereas the B777 would most likely have to turn back, or land at the nearest airport.
The reply by Boeing was, it was unlikely that any airline would continue flying with one engine damaged, be it a 4 engine or 2 engine aircraft. Hence the odds of a delay due to engine failure were TWICE in 4 engine aircrafts than twin engine ones.
What's your thought on this topic?
With a 3 or 4 engine jet (and there aren't many 3s still flying, except cargo), you have a 3x or 4x potential for an engine to have trouble. I recall a BA pilot who had to shut down an engine over the Atlantic, should've turned back to Gander, but plowed on to Heathrow. He was about an hour(?) late, got a talking to from the airline, but the pilot defended his decision. This happened within the past 18 months or so.
