I think Gerard was going to be commiting this, I'll have to check and
see what's up.

I'm not sure if that main control qualifies as an override. It's just a
dial that goes from 0 to 10 with a small mechanical safety switch for
going higher than 8. The pilot was supposed to st it to different
numbers at different power conditions and phases of the mission. 9 and
10 were for emergencies.
