"South Africa's Civil Aviation Authority has praised the airmanship of British Airways Boeing 747-400 pilots who battled to prevent a low-altitude stall after the leading-edge slats unexpectedly retracted during lift-off from Johannesburg." Apparently a false signal from the reversers on two engines caused this, even though the reversers had not been engaged.

:welldone: Good to read some positive news about BA for a change.
