Please enlighten me - I am not aware of a any accidents caused by a faulty Thrust Reverser that had been MEL'd?

Please do not include the A320 series accident(s) that involved an MEL'd Thrust Reverser that the MEL Operations led to a human factors issue. AFAIK the accidents were nothing to do with the Rev U/S - they were to do with the procedures and crew actions... which is best corrected by addressing those procedures (as has been done) rather than a hyterical "Ban Thrust Rev U/S MEL section"...

NoD
Maybe the swiss cheese holes found a good path...Why not stopping them before any procedure related to crew actions?

My two cents opinon
