I have almost as much experience as Schiff, and probably far more on Intercontinental and ex-US border flying experience than him. I am saying his word is no more final than mine.
I leave aside your facetiousness Mr. Woolley. The end of the flight was a new problem. No adverse event resulted from the decision to proceed on 3- it went like clockwork, and was no more dangerous than flying a DC10. That decision to continue was the one that raised criticism here. The events at the end of the flight were a different matter and should be examined separately, don't you think? I still await information about it. It was the apparent suddenly unusable fuel that caused the final problem.
