AoA
"The APU was checked Inoped and dispatched."
Can't let that slide AoA. Are you a pilot? You get a Fire warning THEN it goes out WHEN you run the NNC. Would you as a reasonable person have wanted it inspected? I read in the ATSB report that the crew advised ARFF that they would be towed back onto the bay, but this never happened, the MEL was applied and off they went. The report doesn't really elaborate on the logic of this scenario, but I know what I would have done. What would you have done?
