You see i ain`t convinced he did get it though the gate and into beta.
I don`t think they would have got the power back up.
And there was no beta horn sounding but i don`t know if they have one. I would be suprised if they didn`t.
I know ours tiggers with in a ball hair of going into beta the microswitch is just after the step that you have to lift the gate up to get behind and your not really into beta until you move the lever another ten degrees of arc.
There is a pic of it in that G-EEST report. It definately was in beta when it did its 5.6g landing.
