All good stuff,
Must be some lessons to be learnt.
When I go shopping, a small basket=$10, big basket=$20, small trolly=$40, big trolly=$60+, I don't always check the bill detail, but I check the bill zone.
Brings to mind an old story of an Air Florida 737 departing IAD I think, poss 1982 may be, they got reqd EPR IND but less N1 and thrust than needed, result was bad.
I liked the previous post of a wide guage plate just like the ones for other systems likes Flaps nd Gear on some aircrafts.
I've said it before, well done to the crew involved, great end result, only hope we learn the lessons and make flying even more safe.
Edit. Thinking on, I wonder how many similar type events have been saved from the press by crew Stopping or TOGA being applied when crew aware things are not what they might be, may be !!!
