They are. Hydraulic lines, aside from having multiple redundancies, now also have check valves that automatically close when they detect a rapid drop in pressure so that as much hydraulic fluid can be kept in the system as possible. The chances of all hydraulic systems being severed AND in multiple places is literally one in a million. As for engines an engine failure really isn't that bad, unless the engine itself comes off (which is nearly unheard of) or something causes the cowling to fail in a way that sends shrapnel into the body of the plane.

Honestly on planes I'm more worried about pilot error, some random switch being in the wrong position, etc, more than mechanical failure.

That's good to hear. I was wondering earlier, do the wing fuel tanks have redunancies too? If an engine goes pop and makes a hole is the entire wing tank going to drain out, or is it compartmentalised?

>>1765378
They aren't compartmented usually, at least not in a way that you are thinking. But that's one of the reasons that fuel flows from the wings into the center tank and then back into the engines instead of directly from the wings into the engines, and why engines usually have the option to get fuel from more than one tank. In the event of a fuel leak the pilots would get as much of the fuel into the remaining tanks as possible and then make an emergency landing at the nearest airport. Even with one empty wing tank the plane should still be able land safely. The real issue here is that a drained fuel tank fucks with the center of gravity so it makes the plane harder to control and land. Not catastrophically so but it increases the difficulty of landing. The real danger with a fuel leak though is fire from exposed/cut wires. A fire in the fuel system is very serious.
