Default Re: engine shut down enrouote

My dad flew the civilian(Stratocruiser) version of the KC-97 for Northwest. Fortunately, he never had any gear problems or lost an engine. As he said, he made it a point never to take those trips. I do recall him saying that you had to watch the temperature on those big R-3350 engines.
