Without getting into the nitty gritty of systems etc, the book was well written, and honest, I felt. It was "
Aviate, Navigate, Communicate !" Three core principles of our job, that gets lost so, in often the system.
Control checks after an abnormal, may get lost in the airline system and not discussed, but in my experience, starting with my PPL, it was discussed and practiced. On a basic level it was to find the minimum speed you would have control of the aircaft during landing. I have applied the same to a good outcome at least twice.
I think the approach would be varied according to, weather your a dot point man or a feel it in your seat man. In the end there is more than one way to "skin a cat", the result is in the outcome.
This was the best possible outcome ... So who are we to question actions, when the improbable happened, which was unique with no consideration or training.
This was "airmanship", and was shown by ALL the crew. Well Done !
