A WDB ACR CREW HAD AN ENG FAIL ON AN ATLANTIC RTE. THEY TURNED AROUND AND LANDED AT THE NEAREST SUITABLE ARPT.

Narrative

I AM A LINE CHK AIRMAN WITH AN AIRLINE. I WAS GIVING A FO ON HIS FIRST TRIP HIS TRANSOCEANIC IOE. WE WERE ON 120 MIN E-TOPS DISPATCH WITH GLASGOW AS OUR LEGAL FOR DISPATCH ENRTE ALTERNATE. FLT FROM MCO-JFK; FL350; IN MNPS AIRSPACE; ABOUT 250 NM W OF EINN; #2 ENG HAD AUDIBLE COMPRESSOR STALL WITH VIBRATION; AND ALL ENG PARAMETERS REDUCED TO IDLE VALUES; INCLUDING EGT. THE FADEC TRIM EPR FAULT LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THROTTLES TO IDLE; PUT CONTINUOUS IGNITION ON; ENG ANTI-ICE ON; TO BLEED ENG; AND PUT FAULT LIGHT OUT BY PUTTING FADEC IN N1 MODE. WITH INCREASED THROTTLE ENG STAYED IN IDLE. I REALLY THOUGHT THAT THIS PROC WOULD RECOVER THE ENG AND WE COULD CONTINUE ON 'C' TRACK TO JFK. EVEN THOUGH THESE PROCS TOOK ONLY A FEW MOMENTS OF TIME TO ACCOMPLISH; IAS WAS BELOW VLS. (VLS -- VELOCITY LOWEST SELECTABLE -- 1.3 VSTALL). I IMMEDIATELY SELECTED 22000 FT; LEVEL CHANGE AND PUT SPD BUG ON GREEN DOT (GREEN DOT -- LIFT/DRAG MAX OR MIN DRAG SPD). IAS RECOVERED; 90 DEG R TURN TO S OF TRACK 'C' TO 30 NM THEN 90 DEG TURN TO E TO PARALLEL TRACK. ANNOUNCED TO ALL ACFT IN VICINITY ON 121.5 OUR POS; TRACK; AND INTENTIONS. ENG WAS AT IDLE; BUT SURGING FROM 57 PERCENT N2 TO 68 PERCENT N2; ABNORMALLY LOW; AND EGT STEADILY INCREASING. IRONICALLY; AS WE PASSED ABEAM EINN; I WAS DISCUSSING ENG FAILURE PROCS AND AN ACE UP YOUR SLEEVE; WAS TO GET WX FOR EINN ON ATIS (WHICH WE DID SCATTERED CLOUDS; RAIN). AS WE TURNED TO PARALLEL TRACK EBOUND; SCOTTISH ANSWERED OUR CALL ON 121.5; AND TOLD US TO SQUAWK 7700; IDENT (RADAR CONTACT). TOLD HIM TO ASSUME PRIMARY COM AND WE WERE DSNDING TO 22000 FT (MIN BUR ALT FOR WT). MANY TRW BTWN US AND EINN; ELECTED TO TURN S FOR DSCNT TO STAY VFR; AND AVOID TFC GIVEN TO US ON HF BY SHANWICK. AT ABOUT 45 NM FROM EINN; #2 ENG E-CAM CAME ON 'OIL PRESSURE LOW (BELOW 70 PSI) PROBABLY DUE TO LOW ENG RPM BELOW IDLE; AND THEN WE COMPLETED ENG FAILURE SHUT DOWN CHKLIST. AN UNEVENTFUL 277000 POUNDS OVERWT SINGLE ENG; 20 FLAPS LNDG AT EINN ACCOMPLISHED. ALTHOUGH GLASGOW WAS OUR LEGAL DISPATCH ENRTE ALTERNATE; EINN; WAS CLOSEST ARPT IN TIME; WHERE SAFE LNDG COULD BE MADE.
