no n2, zero oil qty, severe vibration (indicated or felt)


Regarding the "IF DAMAGE" line:

I think this is a point at which both pilots should monitor each parameter of the engine and then agree if there is, or not, engine damage.

This takes several seconds and both pilots have to concentrate in the engine parameters, or else do it by turns (PNF and then PF, for instance).

I find this part the most annoying of the procedure for that reason, because it is where the CRM is most difficult. Also, you need to know if there is damage or not in order to know when you can declare the engine as secured, which now is important in the procedure (we can delay push for alt till we have secured the engine).
