Clearly. Back in 2003 we helped design a new Airport Control Center for Dubai Airport. The concept was it had to survive an "unplanned landing" from a 747. It was mostly underground. When most of these airports were built they just were not designed for the structural load required to cope with todays jet propelled whales.

I think we can say that number 1 engine failed. They've found blades all down the runway. It then fell off and chose not to go flying.
I suspect they were just passengers heading to the scene of the crash after that.
I suspect the bulk of the investigation will be about how an engine failed so catastrophically that it sprayed bits everywhere which likely caused critical damage, and then fell off. The maintenance and past history of this AC is going to be the focus.
Engine failures happen on takeoff and they are supposed to stay contained and pilots are trained to go flying and sort it out later.

From the various videos available it looks like when #1 failed it caused an issue with #2. Once #2 went there was no way back.
Not good.

Yes, it seems that #2 ingested parts of #1.
In the case of engine failure, the housing is supposed to contain all parts. That didn't happen in this case.
If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
I saw they think #2 was surging too. Looks like they were just passengers on the way to the scene of the accident.![]()
