Our friendly neighbors in the capital have had this in their manual since get-go, so probably not applicable to them.
But deffo applicable to us.
Seriously, and I mean this with a lot of respect for a fellow 777 skipper.
Just because this was "news to you" doesn't mean it wasn't in the manual. Yes it was. It's always been in the manual.
