7200hrs on type - really??? Bloody embarrassing performance to be honest with potentially grave consequences. It doesn't bare thinking about what could have happened if this had occurred elsewhere.

A complete and utter breakdown of S.A - turning below 300' with the gear re-extended on the command of the PIC!! Bank angle over 37.5 degrees with the good engine producing less than MCT. No confirmation of the failure - The captain thought to himself that there had been loss of thrust to both engines. No query as part of a crew with regards to his opinion or reasoning behind his decision to put the gear down! No teamwork, little to no task management. It all culminated by what appeared to be a flap 5 single engine landing. Completely rushed, completely non standard! Lucky that 18C is 3300m long then!

So 7200 hours on a 737! Makes me wonder. I would be interested to see his training records.
