"Poor fellow"? You mean EK 777 fleet technical pilot?
Is your nose really that brown?
His attempt to deny the event only confirmed that an event took place. In fact such event was significant enough to prompt the issue of a company notam to remind their crews to follow SOP.
We all know why SOPs are in place, so at some point during this flight the omission of SOP (or poor airmanship, SA, currency.. you name it) lead to an undesired aircraft state that needed to be addressed broadly to all 777 pilots.
Looking forward to read the investigation report, oh wait
