- not to fret, A37, you'll get used to this here. Within a few minutes we have blood pressures raised, exclamation marks, shouting and a single-engined g/a in answer to your query on a 2-eng g/a. Imagine what the cockpit would be like for real with these characters......
Out of interest, I'm sort of with Stue on this and I would leave the flap until I had a positive rofc. The odd F/O's bounce below Vref I have experienced generates a fairly busy state of activity in the cockpit and the original 'startled' PF is probably sitting like a 'startled' rabbit anyway so you'll probably be calling for flap for a while until it sinks in. You may just finish up moving the flap yourself. Don't forget you can always have another free 'bounce' on the runway if you need it (just as you might on a g/a in the flare in CatIII) so a good idea to keep it lined up
