Thanks, not sure if Sid's videos were specifically about 'dimming'? I read the CAD was switched off, a bit different situation I guess, maybe I have missed s.th. The reaction to the red master caution is the big miracle (for me); one detail that concerns me is the recording of first 'intermittent' LOW FUEL 1 master caution before they became permanent LOW FUEL 1 and LOW FUEL 2. The pilot might have been distracted by an intermittent warning? and was perhaps acting not pessimistic or assertive enough, not calculating to land in 10 min from the very first flash of the master caution. And then base was already very close.
