Ba 038 777 Accident Remains Unresolved

I encourage each of the Professional Pilots to monitor this investigation. Months have passed and today there is no guidance or direction from the investigation which would tend to make our crews and passengers less likely to experience uncommanded non-responsiveness to the command for thrust.

It is now up to our sucessors flying the line every day to stand up and challenge the AAIB, NTSB, FAA, Boeing, Rolls Royce, British Air, etal. to put their head to the cause and effect. I have sent numerous communications to the US FAA and NTSB regarding the BA038 event. There has been absolutely no response from either agency.

The accident experienced by BA 038 should never have happened. It did happen. None of us know why. None of us have heard anything from our expert authorities regarding the elimination, mitigation, or recovery from the experience our BA crews had to deal with. Where is Boeing, Rolls Royce, FAA, NTSB, FAA, etal,?

I encourage all of the PPrune community to dig deep within and nudge, nay bully a little, your respective governmental authorities to get a move on. Winter is not that far away and it was winter which laid BA038 on the apron.
