It would also calm me down because it is quite specific and shows a possible resolution and course of action, instead of a vague 'fine'. What is fine, when will it be fine, how will it be fine?
In general I think it would also help to educate people more about how much abuse a plane likely can stand. For me a plane is too much of a fragile aluminium tube with a ton of explosive fuel and some superheated engines, at a scary high altitude.
I'm going to educate you more right now - jet fuel is not explosive in the sense that you think it is. It's much less volatile than gasoline and is regularly dumped overboard in emergency situations with no fire risk. Modern jets can fly just fine with one engine shut off like in the OP. Provided that there is enough altitude, planes will glide their way to back a runway to land if both engines go out. The structure can take way more abuse than you think - see this picture of a 787 undergoing a wing structural test. http://blog.flightstory.net/wp-content/uploads/787-ultimate-...
