http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archives/avflash/1592-full.html#202241

And the podcast interview:
“Peter Burkill was captain of British Airways Flight 38, a Boeing 777 with 152 aboard, when it suffered an uncommanded dual engine rollback and crashed short of the runway at Heathrow on January 17, 2008. This is what he experienced, in his words.”

Thanks for the links. Makes for some rather interesting listening. Its still very hard to understand how difficult those 30 seconds must have been on the flightdeck.

If you log onto his Peters website he will probably answer any questions you have..He and his wife are lovely people and i just received an Email from them saying they’ve just released their book
