EEEEEppprrr
Looks like another (at least a second) kill of unexperienced crew
done by EPR.
EPRs are better for one thing, and that is if the engines are new or worn out,
EPRs would in both cases, all the time, give correct power setting,
while N1s would not.
Same N1 on new and old engine does not mean the same thrust.
For all other things like the safety here we are.
The slightliest icing of ONLY a PT2 probe,
even if the rest of engine may be deiced OK
and your EPR will increase to maximum scale..........
and consequently Auto Throttle would pull that power lever all the way back
The rest is to read above.....
