ATC: "what sort of equipment do you need"....".F..d if I know we have one engine so what ever you recon".....

Well done to the crew, kept their calm and landed safely. Very busy given they did an immediate return.

Yes the spiel from missd again was crap....procedure is +ve climb gear UP...400 feet identify....engine limit surge stall memory items...dump fuel/or immediate return to land. Engine limit Surge Stall checklist / Overweight Landing Checklist / Refer to Climb Performance in QRH as per previous checklist / After take off checklist / Approach Checklist/ Descent Check List / Landing Checklist / Talk to Cabin / Possible Landing Distance Calculation / AND deal with ATC?. So very very busy.

Interesting point is that US ATC probably expecting fuel load in pounds...rather than 127T KG. 300000lbs would have been close enough for them.
