The landing in TAK (ANA) involved a warning on ECAM. Plus, smell.
SOPS in re: emergency landing would be an interesting discussion. It is a separate issue from the failure of the Battery....
It is in fact the most important issue. WHY? Because nothing about ANA should have caused the a/c to land, the system functioned within FAA RULES.
Likewise UAL, technically even JAL..... Says alot about the rulemaking, imo.
And, the 'legality' of the rules....It is a good foundation for Boeing's theory of defense regarding damages. If they demonstrate the rules were observed, the grounding becomes an unnecessary burden.....
