No biggy. They usually just make you do to the parts you messed up on.

What happened to CRM and helping each other out with some creative calls like, "HEADING", "POWER," "POSITIVE RATE..."

That is too bad be/she busted. It is no fun to be in that situation. I always feel bad as a crew member in those situations like there might have been something else I could have/should have done to save whatever it was.
