Just maybe acft was at fl370 and incurred an inadvertant S/D. On one engine max alt for the wt would have been FL230. Just maybe the crew requested descent and were told to mtn 370 due traffic. Pan call made to obtain descent knowing that a restart would follow. Engine was subsequently restarted and Pan cxd. There have been 18 recorded instances world wide of F/objts striking the fuel S/Os and causing eng s/dwn on 767s and in one instance it was a double eng shut down. For all you opinionated ignorant wanabees honesty is the best policy in aviation. Sorry I missed the exta "p" in the title, they are people who haven't the nous to move their hand.
