looks like a pencilwhip regarding the temp. probe; OPS pulls the same old number over there too, he; if they would have looked the engine over a little better, which you would expect after a taxiback, nothing would have happened; never flown a DC 9, but friends tell me the plane can be a squirly handful low and slow; to me fatal getthereritis got them
So you believe the pilots would not have any reservations about someone 'pencil whipping' a potentially serious problem?

And try to explain, please, why the crew would have 'gethereitis' when they are departing for an station that is not a domicile. Generally 'getthereitis' is associated with trying to get HOME, not trying to get away from home.
