[32] {{U}}Such a plane costs at least 25 million dollars to build.{{/U}} It costs at least $6,000 to fill this giant with fuel. [33] {{U}}Inside, the jet looks more like a great theatre than a plane.{{/U}} It has 6 kitchens. They are all needed when the plane is full. [34] {{U}}The jet can hold more than 400 passengers.{{/U}} Imagine that number in one jet plane. Is there any danger that the jet's engines will fail? Fortunately, the planes appear to be quite safe. On each plane, there are twice as many engines as it needs. If two engines fail on the same side, the plane can easily use its other engines to land.
