What makes me think it was true was the fact that you continued to your
destination. If it was a malfunction, then it would be hard to justify
continuing (unless of course you're British Airways an have four
engines...). A double compression stall on takeoff would be the absolute
worst time for that to happen.

I had a roomate a while back that was a flight attendant on the Pan Am 747
that lost an engine (as in "fell off" the wing) on takeoff. Still landed
without further incident. And yes, she was quite attractive

Don't know if it's true or not -- just what the pilot said...

If it's really true that the crosswind caused the compression stall, I
wonder why we don't hear about a double stall very often. Theoretically,

the
wind can be strong enough to affect both engines, no?
