Put some tape on your stick the next time.
"What's this? Oh yeah."
Just a thought.

And the tape should have written on it "DO A DI".

A normal DI would discover the spoilers won't open, so obviously a
control check was never done at any time. Removing the tape on the
spoilers is a good idea, but doing a DI is even better (the tape might
not be the only problem).
