Engine-out procedures and eccentric forces on engine pylons
BDS wrote
Judging by how much it was moving around you would have thought it was held on with bungee cords. Nope! Back in my B-707 days, the engine was attached to the pylon with just three bolts about the size of your forefinger, and each of these bolts was designed to break-away and release the engine before it could do damage to the wing.
