I thought this was a very reasonable treatment of the subject at hand. Something you rarely see in "the media." The "tricked out" reference is obvious. An attempt to describe to laymen what a simulator moving around on hydraulic arms is like.

And the reference to "crash landings" obviously is about the situation the BA pilots found themselves in. Every student pilot practices this loss of power scenario. Probably more attention could be paid to it in transport training too. Although rare, there have been a few famous instances of total loss of thrust while I've been in the industry. Some were handled better than others.
