Hi all,. .. .about a year ago I visited the flight deck during a 767 Air Canada flight from Munich to Toronto and asked the pilot why the No. 1 lever was a bit forward of the No. 2 one. He explained that this was due to one Recirculation Fan being inop, which kind of surprised me as a possible reason for staggering thrust levers. Judging from the appearance of the aircraft (flaking paint etc.) it was an older one that presumably didn't have FADEC engines. From my understanding, with one of the newer (FADEC-engined) 767s the handling of this situation would have been different from the one described above, right?
