Just adding to the list of reasons I hate 737s.
Trying to cram a CFM56 into that tiny enclosure... Probably something made contact.
Look how much bigger the casing of the CFM56s on Airbus' A320s are.

Meanwhile, I've flown a 737 more than 40 times and never had any problems.

I'd rather go for survival than looks. This plane landed nicely, did it not? If you look at the history of the Airbii of the past year, you get landings before the rw, landings after the rw, landings next to the rw. And then we also have the cases of departing from cruise for no reason at all, except that the pilots have never actually flown the plane before. No, my interpretation of the statistics says that Airbii are inherently unsafe. Then i fly happily in an ugly Boeing.

Kind regards, Vincent

Was it a 737 NG? The article linked to a 737NG. That looks like a catastrophic cowling failure... the fanblades look like it's still on.

The engines for the 737 is definitely a kludge... but you gotta give kudos to Boeing - they made it work.

Why at all have they deformed engines?
