Dick, go to the main board and check out the thread on the same subject. Your question has been addressed at length there (some would say ad nauseum, with a plethora of budding Biggles/Hop Harrigans telling us how they would have played "Tim the Test Pilot" after assessing the situation with steely eyed accuracy, and then heroicly dragged the Old Girl safely back to base after descending into VMC conditions (which somehow they knew would be there), pulling a multitude of circuit breakers and then hand flying her in for 'n' jours on limited panel whilst navigating with their (analog, I presume) wrist watches.

All have extensive experience on Play Station 2 or MS Flight Simulator, where their monitor screen has not once fallen off their desk as they perform these acts of derring do.

Regarding the QF spin doctors: I'm interested how the story has changed from the drip tray not being re-fitted after the servicing to it being split.
