CONF iture

Protection against fan stall :
- Stall recovery logic : When a fan stall is detected, a logic is triggered to clear this fan stall. The fuel flow is forced to idle and remains idle until engine shut down.
That one one does puzzle me

I could always understand the reduction in FF to clear most stalls, the easiest of which to clear is a fan stall, but why force the engine to be shutdown to clear the FCU and regain control.

Ah, I bet somebody has an explanation and I may learn something
