fox niner, Where would you find a diversion field between San Francisco and Honolulu? And do the ETOPS assumptions allow for the extra drag this crew experienced? I doubt, had this failure occurred at the worst point, they could have reached Honolulu with min fuel, or have been able to return to the US mainland - did you listen to the last part of the video?
