Not to mention the fact that maintenance people who conduct engine runs need to be aware of the hazards involved as identified by this occurrence. As for the recorders, the CVR on most new aircraft runs for 2 hours, and I can't imagine it took that long to get the engines shut down. The DFDR should be good for 24 hours, so for sure there's no issue there.
