reading of FCOM does not make a pilot, and reading up on emergency procedures does not prevent from acting differently in real live
Sure! That is why you need to do something more. But I also definitely know ignorance of FCOM did not help pilots of EK521 either, the recent Dubai 3rd August. One needs what they call KSA. Knowledge, Skill, Attitude.
I was starting to think about unreliable speed when the over-speed warning went off.
If so then why on earth
I deployed the speed brakes to no avail. I then pulled the thrust levers to idle.
After 17634 posts and in excess of 2.7 million views on AF447 what happened to pitch and thrust? Everyone feels sorry for loss of lives and anyone can make a mistake but the way you expressed your contrition it seemed to suggest that occurrence of UAR is a death warrant. Is it?
