    Global News in Canada reporting everyone has survived.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    I wouldn't worry, Iberia, all indications seem to suggest weather as the primary cause.

    Locking this thread as the one in the General section has more posts.
