Finally.....when the Checklist clearly stated:
MGB Oil Pressure < 5psi.....Land Immediately!

Those who are critical of the pilots for not ditching into a choppy and freezing ocean need to remember that a certification loop-hole was cynically used to avoid fixing a known inability to operate with a loss of lubrication. Thirty minutes operation who have resulted in a safe landing.
Notwithstanding the validity of all the arguments back and forth and whilst acknowledging the possible influence of such a hostile environment upon flight crew trying to make the right response to a serious emergency in those circumstances, that checklist item has all the hallmarks of a corporate get-out-of-jail clause, does it not?
