Same thinking

As the Taiwanese investigators pointed out, the present 'Retard' call cuts out after touchdown, whether or not both levers have been retarded. That is clearly an inadequate arrangement, if not an actively-misleading one (given that after the present warning cuts out, the pilots will arguably, on the face of it, be even LESS likely to suspect a wrongly-positioned lever?).
RWA I couldnīt agree with you more. Same thinking. It is surprising to me that PBL a competent and inteligent profissional doesnīt consider this, neither the fact that he has to measure the disasters with landing with the reverser locked (not with all landings). Does AB knows how many landings there have been with reversers locked?...

PS. Brazil will be in the final of womenīs soccer, against Germany...

I will be away until 10/18... Perhaps someone can start a thread on the CENIPAīs final report on the GOL X Legacy.
