Boeing MEL....not many parallels between Air Florida crash...that seems to be more of a misunderstanding of de-ice requirements, and performance considerations, and not realizing their engine indications were incorrect, they were in fact on the correct runway, correctly configured, just had contaminated wings and epr probe resulting in falsely high epr readings.....can think of a couple others , Delta 727 DFW forgot to select correct flap setting for take-off factors were unrelatd conversation, (apparently including a rather graphic description of a cabin crewmember)...that got released to the media during taxi..out..NWA at DTW MD-80..same basic scenario...
