"Too abruptly" is not necessary for upset, imo. It may simply be a "routine" recapture of a/s and alt? Stall and LOC could follow either way. The AD would be more dramatic if such an occurrence (too abruptly) were possible, no?? Now this is semantics, but if immediate LOC were possible, wouldn't this a/c be under a bit more official sanction??
I do not believe the pilots wanted back in Auto immediately after losing the a/p. If their control had resulted in recapture of Bars and Bird, wouldn't they monitor for a bit ?
just sayin'
(edit) I don't know bout anyone else, but one word that gives me the willies is INTERMITTENT.
