Hey, at least the #1 engine (looks like a CFM 56-3-C1 on a 737) is still attached, you've got about 1200-1500ft altitude, and there's no engine fire. That probably means it's still generating thrust and the aircrew won't initiate the shutdown checklist.
Start asking for the expensive scotch when the whole damn nacelle drops off, or it starts flaming like a mofo when you're 50 feet off the deck and have just barely passed V2 (takeoff safety speed).
