Ok GMDS, but this doesn't fit with AAIB Bulletin S3/2008 SPECIAL
The reduction in thrust on both engines was the result of a reduced fuel flow and all engine parameters after the thrust reduction were consistent with this. Parameters recorded on the Quick Access Recorder, Flight Data Recorder and non-volatile memory from the Electronic Engine Controller (EEC) indicate that the engine control system detected the reduced fuel flow and commanded the fuel metering valve to open fully. The fuel metering valve responded to this command and opened fully but with no appreciable change in the fuel flow to either engine.
