Agreed and a valid point. I guess what I was trying to say is that the same mistakes, moving the flaps during T.O, aborting after V1, spoilers not coming up ( or did they?) in a Heavy full of fuel and lots of people would have been a much more tragic outcome, they would not have stopped (think huge Fire Ball).
The RJ is a little more forgiving.
