Forget,
The GPU tripped during start up. If the GPU was reapplied to the aircraft whilst 200vac systems are still running down or the contactors are still closed, then the result would be alot of blown fuses and red faces. If this was the case then I think the ground crew may be a little trigger happy. There are lots and lots of fuses on a Vulcan and to be certain the aircraft is serviceable they ALL need checking.
To change the subject slightly, the news flash on the TVOC's website is utter s**t, it treats any readers as if they are idiots, but then reading the name at the bottom of the entry I'm suprised it's as accurate as it is. The Pilot and Crew probably didn't have any confidence that the aircraft had been repaired properly ! Better luck next time lads, maybe afew more fuses in the flyaway kit !
