There is so much wheat and chaff in this thread that I hope any lawyer building a case based on the information gleaned in this 'professional pilots forum' gets it sifted. (Reely340's last post about practise EOL's being a classic example)
Eg;
Did three people really totally ignore all those warnings?
How do the NVG impinge on the roof when in the stowed position?
Would one really consider an engine restart at 1000' agl over a city?
How much use is the equipment that the EM Shed Buss will give you back?
Etc etc
