ETOPS vs MEL - B767

[nyt]

Hello,

I am wondering why ACA828 / ACA829 (YUL-LYS and back) went substantially north of usual routes today, and thought of ETOPS restrictions, as it matches quite nicely 60min range


Could it be an inoperative HMG as mentioned on page 84 of http://wwwapps2.tc.gc.ca/saf-sec-sur...mels/B_767.pdf ? If anyone from AC maintenance can provide some details, I'd be curious to have them (my wife on the plane will want to know as well )

Thanks for your insight

R pack was inop. MEL 21-51-01A applied.

Getting an authoritative answer on this quite specific topic is like magic to me (internet do wonders to bypass PR filters). Thanks mymymy !
