Heard PSA melted 2

The story I heard is that the crew wasn't paying attention and stalled the aircraft, flamed out both engines but got one relight and melted the other one. Anyone know if it was a revenue flight, ferry or what?
 
What!!! Almost another PCL! All I heard was ferry flight and someone sent me internal pictures of the engines. Scary!! So I guess they were at FL350 or higher.
 
Summary of the story is you gotta lose altitude to recover from a stall at 340. And that the CF34's don't like it when there's no air flow thru them at full power. It was revenue.

Thats how a jet engine works. Just a big air pump.
