On that note...
This happened SEVERAL times at my company because people had no systems/big picture knowledge and just figured the QRH would bail them all.
On that ground, rolling off the runway, one of the TRs wouldn't close. Quick... run the QRH...
Thrust level affected engine idle.
TR EMER STOW buttom push.
And like magic, $50,000 of damage to the engine. Now, a bit of systems knowledge would tell you that either shutting the 14th stage bleed or just shutting down the engine would solve most of the problem.
Yeah, I think I'll know my systems and not rely just on the checklists.
