As I understand it, this crew only did two landings. In the first, one lever was put to idle, the other to reverse; the second flight being the accident. One landing was made by a different crew, who put both levers into reverse.

I also believe that the accident landing was carried out not by the ex-737 pilot but by the senior TAM training captain?

Another complication is that the 'both levers to reverse' drill was (is?) incorporated in the European (EASA) MEL for one reverser inop,, but not in the US (FAA) one. So what TAM's procedure was presumably depends on whether the Brazilian authority conformed to the European or the US procedure; or developed one of their own?
