Iompaseo,
Good to hear from you.
Historical things are not “what if’s”:but the contrary. Fully knows!

sorry. Why does a previous accident related to dumping in an emergency, and choosing not to dump Irelevant? Ever incident over years builds up our knowledge pool and a 1968 accident illustrates that mostly you’re in no hurry to dump , but in an uncontrolled fire you might just land overweight. No time to dump. And land immediately with no checklist. Don’t think the LAX crew seemed to be in dire straits from the ATC Conversations The point is why were we still dumping at 3000ft on approach?
cheers. RvGuy
