" So the flight deck crew landed with the reverser inop at Porto Alegre shortly before their return to CGH and did well"
are we sure?
I ran through a media report that stated the landing in Porto Alegre was indeed uneventful and that the PF noted so.
PR-MBK touched down at 4:40pm and remained 36 minutes on the ground.
I believe I read the PF remained the same for flight 3054, but I can't find anymore the source to confirm that, sorry.
