was the software programmed to be better to assume that 1043mb is the maximum
And..do we know what the minimum pressure has been programed as?

I wonder how the aircraft would behave if you took off on a standard day and descended to -1000 ft Hp (Israel e.g.)? Could be interesting

Regarding the TR bearing, the fix to ensure future vibration detection is in hand, and will probably involve repositioning the accelerometer.

Bristow IHUMS detected a crack in a high speed shaft adaptor that was ignored and subsequently caused a fatal accident
As has been said, that is misinformation, intended or otherwise, it does no-one any credit, and should not be perpetuated. The subject of HUMS being an MEL item has been hotly debated amongst various authorities, and that accident lies at the heart of the debate.
