Most of the no-go items that I find are usually very obvious by the time I find them (puddles of oil/fuel/hydraulic fluid). I would have no clue that the low fuel pressure sensor is broken unless it was on/abnormal all the time. I am thinking that there must be a self test/full cycle feature built into the sensor.

If the engines were to continue running at high speed without fuel, it could lead to a catastrophe.
EagleRJ said:Typical media Nonsense. How can an engine- any engine- continue to run without fuel? Hello?

This non-NASA-insider speculative crap is freaking awesome! People who actually know what they're talking about...... just go play with your slide rules or something whilst the rest of us project our Cessna and Piper paradigms onto the U.S. space program.
