On its own, an engine failure on a four-engine jet is manageable. But as the crew concentrated on trying to restart it, the autopilot quietly did something dangerous: it held the wings level using aileron and rudder, hiding the growing asymmetry &mdash; right up until it ran out of authority.<\/p><p>When the autopilot could compensate no longer, the 747 rolled hard to the right and dropped its nose.
