411A,

If I recall correctly, they used to be prone to tripping off due overspeed (106%) or low oil pressure and it did happen every so often on the ones I flew (coincidentaly I also commanded them for 8 years). Mind you with talk of 757 aircon/fume related probs, perhaps the T/C's were a good idea.

Nothing quite like them - slick,sleek and smokey. Wouldn't ever admit it to them, but FE's are nice to have around too!
