Hand on T.R.

Centaurus,
One of the reasons for removing the hand from the thrust levers at V1 is to prevent the TRs from going to idle should the seat slide back on rotation with your hand on them. Would be fatal !!

Galaxy flyer,
I remember a DC8 crash where on a severe bounced landing the go around was initiated with the wing on fire. It crashed 2 miles from the airport after the wing burnt off and it went in. I'm sure there are others if we look for them.
