Hi metalibox, appreciate your input, and agree with that.

Btw, see what I've just found
http://www.airliners.net/open.file?i...ext_id=0496922


Also, consider this: F5 takeoff.
The slat remains extended.
Roll is of course encountered.
According to the cklist, I limit the speed to 230. End of the story.

What harm can a recycle do?
If I extend to the FULL extended position, like in the picture above, and cannot solve the problem, nothing has changed.
I fly at the same 230 kts speed.
But if the recycle is successful, and we all know recycles are often successful, I avoid loads of trouble on a long flight.

Hi I-2021, following the cklist is easy. What I'm trying to do with this discussion is understanding if it really makes sense at 100%, or what is the exact sense...
Quite a few times I've seen cklist deeply revised over the years, that means Boeing also is after THE TRUTH, as we all are and keep learning.
