Chris, that story appears in the late Ken FitzRoy's excellent book "No Time on the Ground".

He also mentions a P2 who was on board both of BEA's Argosy losses, the first ('SXL) was inadvertently parked on an Italian hillside, the latter ('SXP) cartwheeled off the side of the runway at Stansted after a Check Captain retarded a throttle to simulate an engine failure. All crew survived both accidents.

Edit: Speedbird48 - snap! Ooops, just realised I missed some earlier posts!
