Just wondering.
Considering how far down this aircraft was on the usable generator availability, would the old computer trick of rebooting be applicable to this situation?

I would not want to just try this in the wild without Boeing testing out and coming up with new procedures, but if in mid Ocean and unable to control fuel transfer, then I might reconsider.

Caution-Not type rated, but I have had occasion to fly jets without electrical power. They generally do not need electrical power to stay airborne- for a while!
