Still beats the embarrassment of having an engine flame out on the taxyway

Going back a long way, I recall a 727 which had just that happen .. CBR if I recall correctly. Got caught out with an unplanned diversion after PER-MEL (memory's a tad scratchy now) ... perhaps one go too many before accepting the reality of the situation ... management pilot and min fuel planning.

Bit too tight for my liking...
