I certainly agree that "simply adding Fuel" may not produce the desired result. In Normal circumstances, however, it is basically that simple.

Lomapaseo describes turbojet basics as: Spin, spark, spray. I prefer one I heard from a flight instructor "Suck,Squeeze,Bang,Blow".

Both oversimplified, but to paraphrase your remarks, "Simply adding No Fuel will certainly not attain the desired result". I think you are correct in saying the report does not say, Fuel was/was not supplied in response to commanded level. It is a good catch, and deserves noting.

I vacillate between fascination and impatience regarding AAIB progress.
IMHO all discussion is valuable; I am acquiring knowledge in many fields free of charge, and I appreciate the accessibility of the website. This is a humbling and valuable exercise, to me.
