They're gonna need the crumb buster to clean that engine up.

Yeah, sorry Joey, but I disagree with the "the company needs to raise it". They don't have to raise it. There will always be regional FOs wanting to come here, and it fills the seats for the company.
I'm going to want competent FOs flying with me in 5 years and I'm more than willing to make sure we do what we can to attract quality, the best we can. Because the company will just continue to promise fast upgrades and pull Riddle kids way before raising the pay on their own.

"But why the Crew Advanced the Trottes to TOGA Position after a EGT and N2 exceedance? They wanted to kill the Engine like this?"
Incident: Spirit A319 at Dallas on Oct 15th 2013, contained engine failure
This looks bad for the crew. It may get ugly.

What do you do when you have an engine problem on takeoff? Verify TOGA? What did you learn when you have engine problem and you were getting your multi engine rating? Firewall it right?
When I have problems at altitude I like to stare at the problem for 10 sec before touching anything. Who knows though what anyone would have done in this situation. I can certainly see toga as in the realm of possibilities.
Safe landing with a fire in weather with no damage except the engine and no lives lost. BRAVO!!!

Anyway, take a look at 3.70.19 in the EMERGENCY/ABNORMAL
I'm not playing Monday morning qtrback, just trying to understand sequence of events
Forget what any anonomous poster on the comment section thinks.
Have you seen the ECAM printout for this event?
Crew got the plane safely on the ground and no one was hurt. Better question is why a plane was flying around with "stress corrosion cracking?" Im not a A&P, but that sounds like something that should be inspected routinely.

This is irrelevant. So if, and I have no idea, they were a 2.5 year "newbie" this would mean something?
US Airways Flight 1702 had a crew of close to 10,000 hours Airbus time between the two if them and neither knew the incorrect takeoff data was loaded and neither knew to push to TOGA, instead the non-"newbie" CA replied "We'll get that straight when we get airborne."

Just curious. Experience does matter. If an engine is going all out bonkers and especially overtemping/limits the last one should do is firewall it. I don't know the specifics of the US Air case but I'll read up on it.
It looks like they got the Overlimit ECAM at FL190, went TOGA then 4-minutes later the engine went?, at least that's how I'm reading it.

They did receive an EPR mode fault ECAM. So the #1 engine may have degraded into N1 unrated mode, and provided an overboost.
