This tread was originally about the 757 that landed in the Azores after both
engines shut down due to fuel starvation. That is the incident I am
referring to. Apparently you are referring to the 767 incident referred to
as "The Glimli Glider" incident. Perhaps we are confused over which incident
each of us are referring to.

Clearly you are right there but wasn't the 757 you mention actually an
A330? I shall have to "tread" more carefully. :-)
