The point I was making is that it wasn't clear from your post what the point was that you were making - specifically the last sentence.....

I'm probably reading between the lines when there's nothing there? Apologies if so.

Jetty engine stop after take off. I heard it went back to idle inadvertently. I'm guessing it just had a compressor wash and the PC line was not done up?. Lucky cos that has killed many a JR pilot
