#2 engine was shut down by the F/E strictly against SOPs
Please can you explain ? The crew were alerted to a fire by ATC and acted upon the information presented to them. #2 engine was behaving abnormally although not on fire. Was there other information available to the crew that should have directed them to a different course of action ?
On a separate point, it has been claimed that the shape of the edge of the titanium strip is a match to the lump of rubber that was left on the runway. Allegedly, the strip was kept in the safe belonging to the mayor who has jurisdiction over CDG. Very peculiar.
