At EK we are also required to carry the FM on board the aircraft.

An interesting (if slightly anal) aside is the variation of statements within the FM as to whether TOGA will be selected in the case of an engine failure after V1. We operate the 330-200, 340-300 and the 340-500 as MFF

In the case of the 332 and the 345 there is a statement which says 'you MAY select TOGA' whereas the 343 says catagorically that 'TOGA MUST be selected'.

While these variations are not highlighted in the FCOM and airmanship would suggest that with a 343 TOGA is appropriate at all times, it is these little things that will either be used in court against us or give us an adjacent view of the houses getting bigger.
