Boeing's suggested process so I just happened to see the dramatization of this crash yesterday, and here boeing suggestion for a thrust reversal engaging in flight was likewise simple: cut throttle and fuel to engines. that was based under specific assumption of limited testing, while in the crash the pilot had 6 seconds between the engagement and total irrecoverable loss of control. > -or- assuming that just because there's a process the plane is safe is somewhat disingenuous, as it is placing the blame as an 'either/or' preposition. it might be that training is insufficient, but pilots don't control the training material. and following a checklist is somewhat hard if the plane constantly pulls down.
