Colerne Accident

Brian,

My recollection of the accident was that the No 1 was shut down using the Condition Lever and, during the follow-up, the No 2 Fire Handle was pulled. Because the IAS was below Vmca2, applying full power to the other 2 engines led to the inevitable.

Mind you, your memory is probably better than mine.
