Silberfuchs, I take your point but isn't there a -8F IPT? Also, when was the last time you flew a V1 cut at maximum crosswind on your PC? How do the memory items differ between the -400 and the -8F for things like an engine fire? I was led to believe they're pretty much the same. Finally, if the ECL is anything like the ECAM, isn't it "read-and-do"?
