I don't know about the truth of this story but it's a nice story. You may remember some years ago there was a BA 747 that flew into a cloud of volcanic ash and lost all four engines. The story goes that when the investigators were checking out the "black boxes" they see how the engines quit one by one in rapid succession and all conversation on the flightdeck suddenly stops.
After a few seconds they hear the captains voice: "Quiet, isn't it?"
