JetsGo is a safe airline. I trained many of their pilots in the
MD-80. No airline pilot would attempt a takeoff with one engine out
before start of take off. I flew the B-52H which had 8 fan jets.
Even with 7 remaining, no one would attempt a takeoff in normal
circumstances with an engine inoperative.

I've done three engine take-offs in B-707s without too much
extra thought. Of course, they were accomplished in accordance
with the three engine ferry supplement to the flight manual.
Then again...in the P-3 that the US Navy let me fly, it seems
as if I spent most of the time running around at 100' to 200'
with at least one and often with two of the engines shut down.
